Last fall I decided to let my friend winterize my engine as he said he does his own each year and never had a problem. I hesitated about letting him do it but decided to save the money. Well it looks like this is going to be the most expensive savings I ever had. I brought the boat to my house on the trailer to change the engine oil, filters, zincs and do a couple of other things. The boat is a 215 weekender with a 5.0 mpi seawater cooling. When I started the engine I noticed a lot of water coming out of the sump drain plug. I shut the engine down to see if it was a hose or an open drain plug. I finally restarted the engine and felt around the leaking area and found what appears to be a freeze plug leaking water. The plug is right behind the engine mount. Needless to say I am sick over this. I called my friend and he said it couldn't be and he came over to see for himself. He told me he was sorry and left. I was ready to kill him. I went in the house and read the winter storage instructions and realized we clearly did not do it correctly. I believed someone else before checking myself. He will never touch this boat again and I question his friendship. However, I need to get this repaired and need advice about what the repair entails plus costs to do it. The boat has less than 100 hours on it and is a great boat. :smt013:smt013:smt043:smt043:smt100 Any comments will be greatly appreciated and yes, I know I did a stupid thing.
