Here a question for the group about starting and running your engines. On one side we have a group that claims that marine engines should never be started between runs. That cold cranking an engine is when the greatest amount of wear and damage may occur. They contend only start your boat when you intend to make a trip.
On the other side they claim only normal amounts of wear occurs to an engine when it is started, and engines are better served if they are started and run on a regular basis.
Which side is more right? or is their some middle ground ( or water )
