I own a 2015 Prestige 500 fly which I had aimed to use for a few months a year in Europe. I purchased the boat in 2018 and in 2019 we went up the French Coast for a family holiday in June/July. In late august 2019 I went over and delivered it 3000km to a marina in the Northern Adriatic in Italy. I had all the engines, pods, generator and Seakeeper Gyro all serviced and the water tanks emptied. A biocide was also added to the fuel tanks. She was then put in storage in a warehouse ready for my return in 2020. Given Covid and the travel bans we were unable to visit from South Africa in 2020 and it is also looking highly unlikely for 2021. I am needing advice on the challenge of long term storage without being able to start the engines for such a long period of time. Is this a cause for concern and is there anything else I should be doing? The motors are Volvo IPS600's. Any advice would be appreciated.
