Default What's best to remove oil?

I have the same thing. Works best if the oil is warm. Fortunately I had
the engine ouit when I put it on so that part was easy.

I just installed one of those oil drain hose kits on my engine. It was
very difficult to install due to the cramped space around the engine
oil drain plug, but we finally got it in there. Now all I have to do
is snake the oil drain hose out of the transom drain plug, remove the
threaded brass cap on the end of the oil drain hose and let the oil
drain out of the hose and into a container sitting on the ground below
the drain plug. Of course, this system is no good if your boat is in
the water all the time!

Anyone have any comments, good or bad about these oil drain hose kits?

My boat came with the drain hose arrangement. Only problem was last year,
when I was at the lake, and opened the hatch to see a bilge of oil. End cap
was loose. Lucky they were giving away bildge socks at the ramp. Soaked up
the oil, and used the kicker to get to the marina and buy overpriced oil.
Even caught two trout while motoring to the marina.
