I have a 1986 Catalina 25 with a univ. M12 10 HP inboard . What is the easy way out to winterize this one. Thru the water pump hose or elsewhere? Thanks

That was easy

take it to Flordia. Just kidding. Yes, if it will drink. Take the hose off the through hull. Place it in a bucket filled with anti-freeze and start the engine. If it does not start sucking the anti-freeze up stop right away I used to jam a funnel into the hose and secure it with the hose clamp. Have someone else start the engine and keep pouring anti-freeze into the funnel. It works. You should also run some fresh water through the engine to get the salt out, if you sail in salt water that is.
