Lake Days Run Smoother with AMSOIL

When the sun is high, the water is warm, and the breeze is perfect, there’s no better place to be than on one of Wisconsin’s sparkling lakes. If you're planning on spending your July weekends on the water, this guide to Wisconsin boating maintenance with AMSOIL will ensure your engine stays strong all season long.

Summer Boating Demands Better Maintenance

Boating in July isn’t just about sunshine and smiles. The heat, humidity, and increased usage all put stress on your boat's engine. Extended idle times, high RPM operation, and variable loads mean your engine oil needs to do more than just lubricate. It must also cool, clean, and protect against corrosion.

In addition, ethanol-blended fuel can degrade over time, especially when your boat sits unused between outings. That means your engine is vulnerable to gumming, carbon buildup, and poor ignition. Without proper care, even a short summer season can end in costly repairs.

That’s where AMSOIL marine products come into play.

AMSOIL Marine Synthetic 10W-30: Built for Wisconsin Waters

Unlike automotive oils, AMSOIL Marine Synthetic 10W-30 and even 10W-40 are specifically formulated for the demands of marine engines. Whether you're cruising across Lake Mendota or pulling skiers on Lake Monona, these oil formulas provide:

  • Exceptional wear protection under high-load conditions
  • Improved resistance to fuel dilution common in marine environments
  • Enhanced rust and corrosion resistance, especially critical in humid Wisconsin summers
  • Superior high-temperature performance, helping engines run cool and smooth

If you're investing time and money into your boat, this oil is a no-brainer for Wisconsin boating maintenance.

Don’t let engine trouble sink your lake days. Visit the official AMSOIL website to find the marine products your boat needs, and call Superior Synthetics LLC in Wisconsin at (920) 213-3001 to get AMSOIL shipped straight from your local expert.

HP Marine 2-Stroke Oil: Precision Protection for Two-Stroke Engines

Still rocking a two-stroke engine? Whether it's a classic outboard or high-performance motor, AMSOIL HP Marine Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil delivers elite-level protection and cleaner operation. Ideal for:

  • Mercury, Evinrude, Johnson, Yamaha, and other two-stroke outboards
  • Oil-injected and pre-mix systems
  • Freshwater use in Wisconsin lakes

Benefits include:

  • Low smoke for cleaner spark plugs and exhaust systems
  • Superior lubricity to reduce friction and heat
  • High detergent levels to keep engines clean, even under heavy loads

This is not your average 2-stroke oil—it’s engineered for extreme marine conditions. If you boat regularly in Wisconsin, you’ll notice the smoother throttle response and extended engine life.

Another bonus? It works great with AMSOIL's Gasoline Stabilizer, creating a full-spectrum protection plan for your boat.

AMSOIL Gasoline Stabilizer: Off-the-Water Protection

Most boaters know that their vessel might sit idle for a week or two between uses, especially when weather conditions change. What many don’t realize is that today’s ethanol-blended fuels start breaking down in as little as 30 days.

AMSOIL Gasoline Stabilizer is an easy, affordable way to prevent fuel degradation. Just add it to your tank before storage or between outings to:

  • Prevent varnish and gum buildup in the fuel system
  • Protect against corrosion in fuel lines and injectors
  • Improve engine start-ups after sitting idle

This step should be essential to Wisconsin boating maintenance, especially if your boat doesn’t go out on the water every weekend. Pair it with your AMSOIL marine oil, and you'll be building a strong line of defense for your engine.

Best Practices for Summer Boating Maintenance in Wisconsin

  1. Change Your Oil Mid-Season: If you log significant hours in July, don’t wait until fall to change your oil. Fresh oil keeps your engine cleaner and cooler.
  2. Use Stabilizer Between Outings: Ethanol can wreak havoc in a week. Protect your fuel system with every top-off.
  3. Inspect Fuel and Oil Lines: Heat causes rubber to expand and contract. Cracks and leaks are common midsummer problems.
  4. Flush After Every Outing: Even freshwater lakes contain debris that can build up in the engine. A quick flush can prevent long-term damage.
  5. Keep a Log: Track your oil changes, hours, and fuel use. This data helps you stay on top of your Wisconsin boating maintenance schedule.
