Maintenance Checklist was created by mluskin
In response to a request on the IPMail site, I've posted my Maintenance Checklist in the Documents section of IPYOA. It's in Excel so you can edit away. Hope it's helpful. ML

I have to agree, that is a great outline of jobs by categories. Outstanding work Michael. Thank you again for sharing this. I need to modify that and apply this to Island Spirit.
The only item I would add is battery bank equalization. This is needed every 6 months or at least once a year. Fully charge the bank then apply 15.5 volts for 4-6 hours.

NOTE:
Before doing this, check with your own battery manufacture and make sure they recommend this. Some call this a "conditioning" charge, others call it an equalization charge.

Great list again, thank you.

Certainly true. There are many systems and pieces of equipment that IPYOA members with larger boats will have that I don't have on my IP27: bow thrusters; davits; refrigeration, AC, heating, power generation and water making systems; dinghies and outboard engines; radar, SSB, GPS, and AIS antennas and mounts; etc. Many of these require routine maintenance (lube, filters, tuning, tightening, etc.) and, as others have pointed out, it's really important to keep your eyes open whenever you're on the boat; we've got to be inspecting all the time!

I just uploaded the 2021 version of my maintenance checklist into the Documents section of IPYOA. It replaces the earlier versions. It's in Excel and you can easily modify it to suit your needs. ML
