Got an estimate for heated storage from Ecarte Marine (Ontario): US $2250.
Includes haulout, bottom wash, pumpout, batteries disconnected, engine fogging and spring launch.

Then got an estimate from Belle Maer Harbor/SkipperBuds (Michigan) for winterization, shrink wrap and outside cold storage: $2420. Need to confirm there are no additional spring outfitting charges.

Trying to figure out if it's worth not spending the $170.

What will I have to do to the water systems if I choose Ecarte? Any other systems/issues I need to consider?

If they can guarentee the indoor storage will always be kept above freezing (and you get that IN writing) then you can skip winterization of all the systems. But if that can not guarentee it... Then you will have to winterize everything anyway.
