Toilet, raw water application: Remove hose from intske, drain strainer, pour 1 qt or so through till flushes red in in toilet. Pour remainder through toilet to holding tank.
Fresh water system: Drain water tank, drain hot water tank. Remove hot and cold lines from hot water tank and hook together. Close all faucets except the farthest forward cold faucet. Pour red pop into fresh water filter or a hose added to the intake side of the pump. Allow red to come from hot and cold faucets including the showers and the toilet(if fresh water application). Turn off pump and remove 2 lines connected at ice maker to drain. All this usually only uses 1 gallon.
A/C single: Drain sea strainer. Remove a hose anywhere in the system that is easy to get to. Use a shop vac to suck water from each end of the hoses. Pour a pint or so into each end of the hoses and blow it through till there is no back pressure. Use canned air, the shop vac or simply blow with your mouth.
Your boat is now winterized. I have a selection of different size hoses I use to hook up here or there to get antifreeze where I want it. You guys only donig one boat can just find the little piece you need and keep it for future use.
