WINTERIZE Today!!!! Big Chill hitting tomorrow - 80 today Friday morning 28- BRRRR

I personally just pull water drains from engine block and exhaust risers, disconnect the impeller hoses and the water pump hose, then turn over engine to a few times to force water out. lower the lower unit so it can drain - pull the batteries and call it a day.

So true!

Funny thing....when they did the survey, they "discovered" a BoatSafe heater...not plugged in, but in the boat....time to get that sucker connected and tested!
