Winterizing
Anyone on lanier? Freeze warning as it’s suppose to possibly drop to 29 Mon am. I keep my boat on a lift so I’m curious if I should throw a space heater in there for piece of mind?

I'm on Allatoona, also on a lfit on open water but considering it's one night and not that cold it'll be fine. The engine bay stays a few degrees warmer than the air. Prolonged or harder freeze would be of more concern.

I'd pull the engine block and exhaust drain plugs for peace of mind. 5 minutes tops.

Drain water from the system. If you have heater or shower, make sure they are drained well.
Alternatively, drop the lift and let it sit in the water. The air will be much colder than the water and the water will keep the boat warmer. That will protect you from 29° weather. |
