Default Re: Question for us winter sufferers

Outboards are fine if left in the down position. The guys at worst marine are refering to I/O's or inboards which do hold water in the block and will freeze / crack. I keep the batteries topped off and run the boat every few weeks all winter. Even if I can't get on the water, I'll run her on the muffs once a month on a warm afternoon. Run her for 15 minutes so the thermostats open up and your good to go. Don't leave her unattended because every now and then an outboard will overheat on the muffs if your not paying attention to her.

Locked and loaded all winter
