    RE: Any thoughts on winterizing your bass boat

    "I also heavily spray WD40 on my trailer jack , tow chains , and the trailer tongue itself"

    Bassmanic, you do know that WD40 will desolve and remove any grease or lubricating oil, right? I always make sure to keep white grease on my ball to keep it from cutting into the tongue hitch.

    Just a thought.

    Tight lines and God Bless

    Danny ,
    Well that grease on the ball sounds a little funny { har har } but I see your point . I use the WD to keep rust away over the winter - I wipe it all down in the spring and use lithum grease were needed . Grease on the tow chains would be very messy anyway . Another thing is in the spring check all screws on the boat , they can get loose and fall out . A coat of marine wax is another good idea but its to late for that now .
    Merry Christmas :}
