Ah, yes, with the "kit" or whatever the hell he used.

I have an easier method:

1. Drive boat to dealership.

2. Tell servicewriter to winterize boat and motor,
wash and wax boat, and shrinkwrap entire package.
Batteries are removed and stored indoors.

3. Store rig at back of dealer's huge fenced lot.

4. Mail the bill to me.

Deal performs service competently, changes oil and filter, checks for
any warranty items, takes care of, et cetera.

In the spring, about two weeks before I want the boat, I call the dealer
and say:

"Recommission."

And what does that cost for your fabulous 36' Zimmermanlike lobstaboat,
exactly?
