More In-Depth Checks

Every month, it is essential to carry out more in-depth checks to identify and resolve potential issues. Nautica Depot can help you with the maintenance of electrical cables, ensuring they are intact, safe, and well secured. Battery conditions must be checked to ensure they are in good condition, clean, and dry.

Additionally, we inspect fuses, change the engine oil and filter, and clean and check the raw water filter, impeller, and pump.

Cleaning and flushing the siphon and checking the sails for damage and mold are equally crucial.
