Default wth I just winterized my boat and now its 80 degrees

Depends what you do when winterizing. I very rarely do all of this in one
day. I will winterize the engine, replace oil in lower unit and freshwater
system in one day. I will then wash and wax the hull, inspect engine,
tighten bolts, replace fan belt, impeller, gas filter etc. make any
improvements during the off season whenever there is a good day. I am able
to check out the boat, get some sun and make sure there are no problems.

Fill tank with gas, add stabilizer, run for 10 min - 15- 20 min.

Fog Engine - 5 min.

Change oil / oil filter - 15 - 20 min with setting up and clean up.

Drain water from engine - 15 - 20 min. including clean up

If you add Pink antifreeze to engine 10 -15 min. set up and clean up

Clean flame arrestor - 10 min.

Remove Battery and place in car. - 10 min.

Change oil in lower unit - 15 - 20 min.

Remove all extras from boat open all storage compartments for ventilation -
15- 30 min.

Clean & wax hull thoroughly - 2 - 3 hrs.

Drain Fresh water system and add antifreeze - 15 min.

Remove water from Head and plumbing, add antifreeze - 15 - 20 min.
