Let me preface this by saying this is our first year with our new to us 320 DA and I'd rather not screw things up. We're in the process of filling out our winterization paperwork and these services are not cheap! First off I'm very technical and mechanical so I feel I can do a lot of this myself however I'm afraid I may not know the process or the order in which things should be done. I've become very familiar with the mechanics of the vessel over the season and I know where most things are. So my question is, do I go ahead and have the marina do the bulk of the mechanical winterization (They've given me the option of looking over their shoulder) and slowly gain some knowledge over the next few seasons or do i try my hand at it with the guidance from the forum? Also if there is anyone in the CT area with a similar vessel that does their own winterization I'm more than willing to offer a hand in trade for some knowledge. Again I don't mind paying for the service but I hate to pay for something that I'm more than capable of doing.
