During the winter, they are taken out of the water for a thorough inspection and overhaul of the deck and hull, accompanied by antifouling treatment.<\/p>\n<h2>The benefits of Nicols service:<\/h2>\n<p>Thanks to our network of bases throughout France, we can offer <b>our maintenance and servicing services<\/b> wherever you are. Our teams have extensive knowledge of our boats and genuine expertise.<\/p>\n<p>Several of our bases can provide various services, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lifting out of the water<\/li>\n<li>Dry storage<\/li>\n<li>Antifouling<\/li>\n<li>Mooring your boat<\/li>\n<li>Winter storage with repairs<\/li>\n<li>Installation of additional equipment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>After-sales service \/ Spare parts:<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">As Nicols is a boat builder and charterer, we have a shop in our yard where spare parts and other accessories are available. We are always on hand to offer advice and service.<\/p>\n<h2>Annual maintenance budget?<\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">The design of Nicols river launches in polyester hulls generates a very low maintenance budget; their simple, practical and pragmatic design, originally intended for charter, also contributes to this low maintenance cost.<br \/>As an owner, you&#8217;ll need to take the boat out of the water every 3 or 4 years. For the rest, just like a car, it&#8217;s a matter of routine maintenance: oil change, etc.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column]<\/p>\n<p>[et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.47&#8243;
