This will be my first time wintering a boat. I wanted to know how much is shrink wrap per foot? Can you buy it by the foot any where(if so what store or website)? Is it worth it to buy all the supplies and do it myself? What is a fair price for someone to wrap a 20ft center console? Thanks guys as well

Re: Shrink wrap question

How much is the shrink wrap usually? I found most were going to be over 90$. Where can you find cheaper shrink wrap? Thanks

Re: Shrink wrap question

my supplies were over 200

90 is CHEAP

btw DEFINITELY pay more for thicker wrap... it is MUCH easier to work with

Re: Shrink wrap question

For the DIY shrinkwrap is gona be expensive the first time to get all the materials/heat gun ect...but will payfor itself by the 2nd yr.
Around here they charge $10 a foot to wrap a boat....$200 bucks for a 20 footer and an xtra 20 bucks to wrap the drive.

Re: Shrink wrap question

when you buy the supplies you generally get a roll with enough wrap for at least 3 years also
