Default Engine oil check

It's been a while since I checked the condition of the engine oil on my
Westerbeke 13... last time was at purchase.. about 18 mos. ago.

An old oil sample was sent off for analysis as a condition of the purchase,
and nothing out of ordinary was found, but I changed the oil anyway.

I'm thinking that it's that time again, and I was going to send away to have
a sample tested when I ran across this article. It's a heck of lot less
expensive to test it this way vs. the $45 the last time for a one-time test.

Has anyone done this? It seems to be fairly new.
