Mallorca’s winter may appear mild, but the season brings a combination of humidity, salt exposure and long periods of inactivity that can quietly damage high-value water toys. Yet one factor is often overlooked: where the equipment is stored. Leaving Seabobs, eFoils, jetboards or inflatable docks in garages, onboard closed boats or makeshift storage rooms exposes them not only to moisture, but also to risks such as theft, accidental damage, pests, condensation and lack of proper insurance coverage.
For equipment that can easily reach several thousand euros in value, secure and professional winter storage is not just convenient — it’s essential for protecting your investment.
1. Home Garages and Onboard Lockers Don’t Offer Real Protection
Many owners assume that simply keeping their equipment “indoors” is enough. In reality, these spaces are rarely prepared for sensitive electronics or high-value items. Typical problems we see in spring include:
- moisture accumulation in closed, unventilated rooms
- salt-air corrosion, even without direct contact with the sea
- accidental knocks or falls during the winter
- rodents inside garages or yacht storage lockers
- no temperature control, leading to condensation inside housings
These issues often go unnoticed for months — until the equipment fails during the first outing of the season.
2. Insurance Coverage Is Limited When Equipment Is Stored Incorrectly
One of the biggest misconceptions among owners is assuming their insurance policy covers winter damage or theft “anywhere” the equipment is stored. In practice, this is rarely the case.
Improper storage can result in:
- denied claims for moisture-related failures
- lack of coverage if the equipment is stolen from an unsecured area
- complications when damage occurs in a non-certified storage space
Professional storage provides the controlled, documented environment necessary to protect both the equipment and the validity of insurance coverage.
3. High-Value Equipment Requires Safe, Monitored Facilities
Devices like Seabobs, eFoils, electric surfboards, high-capacity lithium batteries and premium inflatable platforms are not only expensive — they are fragile and attractive targets for theft.
Storing them in a professional facility ensures protection from:
- unauthorised access
- environmental exposure
- accidental impacts or pressure
- fire risks and humidity buildup
- prolonged contact with contaminated air
A secure facility reduces all of these risks dramatically compared with home or onboard storage.
