i dont know where the rest of the dash gets it power only the starter cable is connected at the battery. The switch on the dash turns the deck on even if the key is off, am i just gonna have to rewire it so its a separate circuit?

I rewired my ACC switch to run off the deep cycle battery. and ran the memory wire to the deep cycle also.

I moved my depth finder off the ACC switch and over to my blower switch. I figured I really only care about how deep it is, is when the motor is going to be running.

I dropped my boat off this morning for service.

Anyone know how to de-winterize a boat?

I'm assuming you did not do the winterizing yourself...

Nope... had a shop do it. I guess the best thing is to call them.

J, I don't know what engine you have, but it's basically the same for any. You need to put your drain plugs and knock sensors back in - check to be sure all hoses are back on. Hook up your battery, fake-a-lake and crank her up....look for any leaks. Done.

Some shops put all the plugs and hoses back in place and fill with antifreeze....if so you're ready to go in the spring. Always check you fluid levels too....

[jwanck11]

Sounds simple... it seems though that the knock sensors and the drain plugs are all ready in. On the bottom of the manifolds, there are two plugs (look like wingnut ends) and when I loosened them, water came out. I hope that is just condensation or something...

[jwanck11]

Thanks for the suggestion! It was not antifreeze that came out of the manifold...........

If they were in it should be marine/rv AF. You might want to contact the shop that did the work.

We've put 15 hours on our boat the last two weeks.

I hope to put at least an hour on it this weekend!
