This will be my first winter with my boat, I don't really plan on using it from probably Thanksgiving til late March. I'll be storing it indoors, unheated most of the time. I'm just wondering if there is anything special I need to do to the 9.9 Four Stroke Merc I have. Thanks in advance for the help.
 
I'm from way down South and have no clue what wintering a boat is about, but I know my Yamaha manuals give you wintering instructions. I would assume that you drain the gas and fog the cylinders. Make sure you get all of the water to drain out of the block. My Yamahas have a water hose hook up. If you unscrew them, water will pour out and even more will come out when you tilt it.
