Re: 1990 V-20 For Sale
On my last boat ( a Grady wannabe), I changed my lower unit oil at the beginning of the season. At the end of the season, I changed it in preparation for the winter and out poured cafe mocha with a side of shavings. Lower unit was shot. Since then, I always do a mid-season change if just to check for leaks. Saltwater is hard on a boat and I like to fish 20 miles out.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not Mister Maintenance on all aspects of the boat. But simple things like lower unit and engine oil are easy to take care of and pay huge dividends in saving $$$ in the long run.
