Commissioning my first time.

[Stormydog]

Hello all, this will be our first time commissioning our boat. Our boat is a 28' Catalina MKII. We did not have time last year to winterize the boat, so we got the marine store to do it for us. They did the motor, hot and cold pressure water, and head and holding tank. We would like to commission the boat this year, but we do not know what to do. If someone has sometime, could they give me a step by step what to do to have our boat ready for spring launching.


Thanks

I am assuming you have an inboard. If you have an outboard, it would be slightly different.

Also, how the water heater was done is an unknown. Most people install a bypass of some sort and just drain the water heater.

I have attached a pdf of a checklist I use for my boat. I do new one each year and keep it with all my manuals.

Good luck
