so we lost an engine last year and used the boat for a month or so as a condo on the dock ehile we decided to replace the single engine with a match or replace both with efi 350's.
we decided we love our boat and its ride and power and dont need bling under the hatch so long as they both work properly and why drop $20,000 when you can spend $7000?
anyway, my wife got pregnant (not really a shock, we have to do IVF) but we decided with a delivery on father's day, 2weeks early, the boat wouldnt get any real use and to leave it on land for the season. we also have a 19month old kicking and screaming.
Not having this boat for too long, what should be done during a humid summer to keep the boat fresh?
any concerns with the good engine? it was properly winterized and new manifolds and risers will go on the same time the new engine goes in.
thanks in advance
