O - 3 WINTERSTORAGE
The boat must be properly protected during winter dry
dock storage. Awinter storage cover is advisable. Many
marine dealers offer shrink-wrap enclosures for outdoor
storage. See a Four Winns dealer for information on the
availability of winter storage covers or other alternatives
for storage.
When storing outdoors, make sure the supporting frame-
work keeps the weight of the snow and rain from accu-
mulating on the storage cover. Proper ventilation must
also be provided or dry rot and mildew will occur. See
Section R - General Maintenance for additional winter
storage information.

O - 4 USE OF WEATHER COVERSAND CARBON
MONOXIDE
When an engine is running, a natural vacuum may exist
with the right wind and sea conditions to allow exhaust
gases (which includes carbon monoxide) to seep into
the boat. When canvas is utilized, this compounds the
possibility of this occurring and inhibits natural ventila-
tion. For more information, refer to Section B-2 - Carbon
Monoxide in this manual.
