good winterize but what if they have a small leak in the exhaust or engine. Over the winter that could be a problem.

[rbroberts226]

[izwild]

what about the outdrive anything

[al8675]

@izwild if anything take it off to check for water. change gearoil and grease fittings

Good video Eddie. One thing that I have been told is to run a piece of wire in the motor block and manifold holes to make sure they are clear because sometimes rust will block the holes.

Thanks for this great video. 2 Questions: "water heater"? Not on every boat right? So a 20foot bow rider I can skip that part? Second question: I've always ran antifreeze via a gravity system through the outdrive... pouring antifreeze in the hoses at the thermostat (looks a lot easier) will it put antifreeze in the OUT drive also? And do I disconnect AND fill ALL 4 hoses? Thanks again!!
