In Minnesota Winters How Can You Keep Boat Engine Bay From Freezing?  

Published 09/30/2025

Question:

I’m in Minnesota and see temps down to -20°F. Should I size up to the 800W even if my boat is only 26’?

Expert Reply:

Ron, in that climate, I’d recommend going larger. Even though a 26’ boat typically fits the 600W # XH77FR range, extreme cold can push it. The 800W # XH27FR gives you extra buffer.

Do you usually leave the boat in the water, or is it on a lift during those cold snaps?
