Winterization
Protect your investment. Full winterization to keep your ski or boat safe through the cold months.
North Texas winters can destroy an unprotected watercraft. Lake Bridgeport sees freezing temps every year — sometimes into the teens — and that's all it takes to crack an engine block, corrode fuel lines, or kill a battery. Bridgeport Ski Daddies provides full winterization service for jet skis, boats, and outboard motors to protect your investment through the cold months.
Our comprehensive winterization process covers every system that's vulnerable to cold weather damage. We fog the engine to coat internal surfaces with protective oil, flush the cooling system with marine-safe antifreeze, stabilize the fuel to prevent ethanol degradation, disconnect and treat the battery, drain the exhaust system, and inspect the entire rig for pre-existing issues that could worsen over winter.
We see it every spring — someone tried to save $200 by skipping winterization and ends up paying $1,500–3,000 in repairs. Cracked engine blocks, corroded fuel systems, dead batteries, and dried-out seals are all preventable with proper winterization.
The best time to winterize around Lake Bridgeport is late October through November — before the first hard freeze. Don't wait until December when the cold snap has already hit. We offer mobile winterization service, so we come to your dock, driveway, or storage spot. No need to haul anything.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I winterize in North Texas?
Before the first hard freeze — typically late October through November around Lake Bridgeport. Don't wait until December. We start booking winterization appointments in early October.
What if I keep my jet ski in a heated garage?
You should still stabilize the fuel and fog the engine. Even in a heated garage, fuel degrades over time and internal engine components can corrode without proper treatment.
How much does winterization cost?
Winterization for a jet ski typically runs $150–250. Boats with outboard motors run $200–400+ depending on the motor. Compare that to $1,500–3,000+ in freeze damage repairs — it's a no-brainer.
What happens if I don't winterize?
Water left in the cooling system expands when it freezes, cracking engine blocks and exhaust manifolds. Ethanol fuel absorbs moisture and corrodes fuel tanks, lines, and injectors. Batteries sulfate and die. Rubber seals dry out and crack. All preventable.
Do you winterize boats too, or just jet skis?
Both. We winterize jet skis, boats with outboard motors, and boats with inboard/outboard setups. Full coverage for all watercraft on Lake Bridgeport.
