Now that we are into the new year and spring is around the corner thought I would start a new topic. What do you do to de-Winterize your boat? I'll start with a few items to get us started.

     1. check all hull hulls and tighten all double clamps
     2. check all exhaust clamps replace those that are questionable.
     3. check all fulid levels

Now how about you -

Didn't really winterize. Had a bilge heater installed (boatsafe of course) and left the cabin heat on. Been using the boat all year round  :P

In fact, leaving tonight to stay on the boat until Monday night, so I may be scarce for the next couple days. Althoug I have internet access on the boat, I tend to find better things to do with my time (no offense to you guys!)
