First, thanks everyone for their help with my first boating season! It was a short one, I only put out about 20 hours.
I’m about to winterize my boat (I'm from Quebec, Canada) and have had every marina/mechanic tell me something different. The Gear oil and Engine oil was new oil when I bought the boat in May. I only put 20 hours on it this summer. There’s a little bit of scum on the bottom, but nothing crazy.
Questions:
Do I need to have Engine Oil and Gear Oil replaced?
Or will a basic winterization due?
Should I do an acid Hull wash? ($150-ish where I am)
Do you shrink wrap your boats? Mine will be stored in a shed.
Thanks again!
