Default winterizing bass boats

Fog the engine.
Add enough fuel to fill the tank and add Stabil (or any other fuel
preservative) to the gas tanks


In the days of my 150hp Johnson... I agree with this 100%. As Steve, I never
did the "gasoline" thing during the boats down time. I paid the price each
spring with needing to have all 3 carbs rebuilt. The jets and the like
always clogged up.

I corrected this problem by fishing all "winter" here in Florida and getting
a smaller boat with an 8hp engine

To add an item, you may want to consider giving some of the metal items a
light shot of an marine oil based protectant.
