Greetings Tuggers,

I am keeping Tug-A-Long in the water this off season.

I plan on maintaining shore power and laying up all wet systems, any other
considerations or concerns?

Thanks in advance-

Not sure what you include in “laying up all wet systems”. I assume RV type
antifreeze in water and waste, or blowing them out. Biocide and stabilizer
in fuel (both diesel and outboard gas). Topping up batteries if wet cells.

In any event, consider: Engine room and tank room heater for freeze
protection; cabin dehumidifier; run engine and generator periodically
(consider block heater); periodic battery checks.
