Folks that make a living winterizing boats also normally have insurance if it
goes bad so in my opinion the money spent is like an insurance policy.

It really is easy, but since you have to ask the question, the best
money you will ever spend is to pay someone to do it for you the first
year, and watch them do it. The bolts for the drain plugs on the engine
can be hidden and it is nice to have a mechanic actually show you where
they are.
