RV & Boat Storage Checklist for NAS-Area Residents

If you live near Naval Air Station (NAS) Corpus Christi, chances are you enjoy life on the water or road with a boat, RV, or both. But when they’re not in use, proper storage is critical. Coastal humidity, salt air, and strong sun can shorten the life of your investment if not cared for correctly. Here’s an RV & boat storage checklist to make sure your vehicles stay in top condition—ready for the next adventure.

🚤 Boat Storage Checklist

✅ Flush and Drain the Engine – Run fresh water through your engine to remove salt and prevent corrosion. ✅ Clean & Wax the Hull – Wash away salt deposits, then apply a protective wax to defend against UV and saltwater damage. ✅ Dry Interior & Upholstery – Moisture leads to mold; wipe everything thoroughly before covering. ✅ Remove Electronics & Valuables – Take GPS systems, speakers, and personal items home for safekeeping. ✅ Cover the Boat Securely – Use a snug, breathable cover to shield against dust, rain, and UV exposure.

🚐 RV Storage Checklist

✅ Empty & Clean Tanks – Drain water, black, and gray tanks to prevent odors and bacteria. ✅ Disconnect Batteries – Prevent battery drain by disconnecting and storing them in a cool, dry place. ✅ Seal Windows & Roof Vents – Check seals to keep moisture, bugs, and dust out. ✅ Cover Tires – Tire covers protect against dry rot from the Corpus Christi sun. ✅ Remove Food & Clean Interior – Prevent pests and mold by storing your RV spotless and food-free.
