Don't know who this Tuuuk idiot is.... but: I highly recommend winterizing
even when a rig is stored in a heated environment. Ever hear of a power
outage? Plus, as Harry said, there is more to winterizing then protecting
against freezing.

Good luck.

In my search up here in the northern states for a Regal cruiser I've
come across several parties that have their vessel in heated storage.
They claim that they do not winterize their boat.

Put aside the obvious risk of "What if you loose power and heat" ...
what about the engine? I thought it was not good to leave it sit for
5-6 months with raw water in the block, as rust corrosion would be
accelerated. I thought that was one of the side benefits of cooling
system flush with winterizing fluid as it protected against corrosion.

Also ... I thought you were not supposed to leave the engine sit without
fogging to protect internal surfaces.

Can anyone shed some light on this topic from practical, mechanical
experience?




Yeah, sure. Make sure you flush out a closed cooling system and refill it
with anti-rust antifreeze in the proper proportions. Change the engine
filter and oil. Wipe down the engine and grease and oil fittings and
moving parts. Run the engine and then fog it. Pour some gasoline
preservative in the fuel tank. Ignore this at your engine's peril.
