I really like the idea of taking the boat out on the occasional higher temp days we get in the Washington DC area. I only live 15 minutes from my marina and I am planning a number of interior projects throughout the winter months.

As you can tell, I’m not too keen on winterizing the engines. I’ve learned the hard way that disconnecting / reconnecting hoses on engines this age often bring bigger projects. Furthermore, I have not found a mechanic I trust yet.
