My first forum question. Boat owners at my lake winterize their water system by pouring about 4 gallons of antifreeze into the water tank after emptying out the water. In spring time they pump out the antifreeze and then fill the tank 2 or 3 times before the final fill.
Sail magazine a few months ago said there is a smart way to do it by only filling the lines from the water pressure pump out to the faucets then no need to do the 3 or 4 tank fills. I sent the editor an email asking if he could explain how to do this but no response.
Maybe someone on the forum knows the smart way and maybe there is no smart way in cold winter areas.
