This year I winterized a little differently then usual as I know I won't use the boat for winters. On my partners advice I ran salt away through through both engines 6 times with a two day soaking period each time. Warmed up the engines, turned on the salt away for two minutes and shut the mixer and engine off. I am unable to flush the engines each trip out, as I often keep it in the water at a remote location with no fresh water at the dock. I have never used salt away before. I think the salt away has some effect, as after letting it soak I was able to taste the salt in the water each time upon flushing it after it sat for 2 days. For the last flush ( without salt away) I removed the thermostats. The walls of the motors were not encrusted with dried out salt but there was some slimy substance on them which wiped off easily, leaving a fairly clean base behind. I believe the salt away had a beneficial effect.
For the first time as well, I ran seafoam (and a fuel stabiliser) through the engines, before finally fogging them with fogging oil and draining the carburetors. Lots of smoke and a headache from that.
Changed the leg oils, ran some rv antifreeze through the wash down pump and removed the battery.
Tarped it up and parked it.
