Nice work!

It is full system (manifolds have anti-freeze only risers see raw water) Just need to winterize risers and mufflers unless I am missing something. All other hoses before heat exchangers will be blown-out/empty.

Going to winterize the engines Friday. Have Merc closed cooled engines so the engines themselves are not an issue. Plan on pulling raw water pumps and covers on heat exchangers, dumping water from raw water lines and strainer. Going to pull the raw water hose that exits the cooler and heads to the r...

Away, It is Boat lover's F-32. I offered to list it for him to try and sell. If he wants to part it out I would be glad to assist if needed/wanted. Hate to see a F-32 die though..

Could always get one and cut it open to find out. Seems a good Merc tech would know too.

Wow!

Water has been ok. Got a little low for a week or two. Headed back up now. Minnesota and Wisconsin have been getting a lot of rain. We are to get 2-3 inches tomorrow! Far cry from last year at this time when we had no water! Will send some your way. If you make it to the Boathouse say hi to Rich and...

Otherwise I may wait till the boat is hauled for the winter in a month and a half or so (sniff, sniff) Anyone have exp...

After putting 7 gallons of RV antifreeze in my tank last fall (that is what it took to get pink RV antifreeze to drain out) it was nasty this spring. Put 10-15 gallons in and a gallon of bleach. Let it set for an hour or two. Dumped that combo and filled with 10-15 gallons of water and 1/2 gallon of...

Ouch!

What's the trick to getting the door off of a Princess oven? Looks like the whole oven has to come apart to get the door off??

Yes to Collinite, No. 476 I think.... Great stuff.
