Last night was 43 here in WI - a hint that fall is around the corner and boating season is coming down to a few short weeks.
I just wanted to ask in general how much of the winterizing the typical owner does and how much they leave to the yard to do?
Myself, since I have installed a number of short cuts, do all the water-system, head, and tanks myself. I always left the AC and Engine to the pro's (on the engine more of an insurance factor, you freeze it you fix it) Now, in a new area and higher prices I am 90% sure I'll do my own AC (I mean, pull the line stick it in antifreeze and run the pump watching for nice pink discharge) Do many of the owners do their own engine, and if so what method do you like the best?
Look forward to some interesting responses.
