Re: Stus-List Winter Worries

Don't take a chance. A cracked block block is an expensive repair. Put a heater on board, and leave the engine compartment open. If the engine is even partly frozen, you won't be able to run antifreeze through it until it thaws. Alan Bergen 35 Mk III Thirsty Rose City YC Portland, OR __

Re: Stus-List Winter worries

As you know, fresh water freezes before saltwater. If it was one day I might risk it. Three days of freezing out of the water, I think you have to do something. If there truly is nothing you can do, you've done all you can, don't worry. But I always think there is something we can do. Can you

23 degrees F tonight, and 30 forecast for tomorrow. Colder than it got all winter last year. My usual winterizing routine is to put the catalytic heater and a few spare bottles of propane aboard for winter weekend cruises. I hate to seem like an alarmist, but I just might need to put an electric

Stus-List Winter worries

My boat was finally pulled out of the water last Friday and I am not going to be able to get down to winterize the engine (raw water cooled) until this weekend. I did the sink/shower plumbing while the boat was still at the dock. As luck (or Murphy) would have it, the nighttime temperatures ar

Re: Stus-List Winterizing Checklist

Never found a good way to wash sails. They are just too big. If you soak them in a big barrel, how do you move them to a drying area after they are wet? I always wanted to hose off the sails when they are on the boat and then sail em dry, but never had the time and weather to do that. I hope oth

Re: Stus-List Winterizing Checklist

All is good and fine to do for winterizing following the list. One thing very important is not to use alcohol RV antifreeze, the type you buy at home depot or Canadian tire or Walmart. It ruins the hoses. You need to use glycol based marine antifreeze. I use the one made by or for mercury. It i

West Marine’s is great, but it is so long that by the time you finish, you may have to start de-winterizing (;-). I use a much shorter one: - change oil - change oil filter - change (check?) fuel filters - change transmission oil - clean and drain the strainer on the fresh water cooling i
