A few weeks ago, Bill tried to pick up a large air conditioner and in so doing, did some damage to his back. With some rest (and no heavy lifting) it really felt a lot better, better enough to tackle to winterizing of the two engines. That was a mistake. We left at the end of the day really hurting but the engines were fully protected.
Luckily, it was a really nice day and the engines sucked up the needed antifreeze. It was nice to see them both run so easily as they warned up.
After the engines were nice and warm and we had the oil filters changed, we hauled out the old oil extractor and pulled out the old oil in just a few minutes.
What remains to be done now is to winterize the boat's fresh water system. That shouldn't require much heavy lifting so between now and next weekend, we'll take it easy and see if we're up to it.
Anyhow, you know we'll get this done.
