Maintenance Cost

[pariswake]

Hi,

What would be a very conservative all inclusive US or EUR maintenance amount (in a high maintenance care scenario including winterisation/unwinterisation costs) to provision yearly on an 06/07/08 SAN210TE with about 200 hrs, based on 50 hrs yearly utilisation?

pheww... long question!

I just bought an 05 SANTE 210, and from the records I got with the boat, the annual service was between $400-500 a year. That was JUST the annual service, and didnt include the winterization considerations you had mentioned.

My dealer charges around $200 for winterization, $100 for an oil change, and will look over everything else.

I think I'm at $150 for 50 hour service, $300 for 100 hr service, $400 for winterization, $200 for recommission in the spring...or very close to those numbers.

I do my own work...oil changes literally take less than 30 minutes and I run the boat year round, so we don't fully winterize, but running through the boat in the spring and fall takes a couple of hours each.

If you can do the simple stuff yourself (...including changing out the impeller and serpentine belt...), you'll save a bundle. Plus you get familiar with the boat.
