In the past when I had twin drives I have had the marina complete all my
winterizing. I now have a single drive and am giving it a go myself
this year, including the lower IO unit and engine.

A question:

Is regular automotive type antifreeze (e.g. Prestone) better for the
engine than the colored stuff sold at boat stores (such as
http://tinyurl.com/cpfbn ).

I realize that the automotive type is not environmentally friendly and if
used I would address that issue when starting up the engine in Spring.

TIA for your help. ;-)



Vodka is your best bet. I use that to winterize my RV and boat.


Armadale,Absolut or Kalashnikov? ;-)

The cheap stuff (like $5 a gallon)... this is really good in my RV,... no
weird after tastes, etc... makes u a bit happier when you open your site in
the spring
