    Another " how to winterize" thread

    I have searched here and on "the other" site for a concrete answer but here's the question: Why replace/change oil and spark plugs now oppose to the spring? Am I wrong to think that the new oil and/or spark plugs will just sit there and gather moisture over the winter??

    Hudson River Between Stony Point and the Battery

    Oh and saw this in horror. Guess this is why we don't leave our boats in the water. Not sure who's it it or how long it was in the water for but it sure looks bad!!!

    Ocean City, NJ?

    Never been that far south but the barnegat up north is great! Our boats with the shallow draft is a plus! Staying out of the main channels at low tide is dicey. Welcome aboard and congrats on your new boat. What color is it? The new colors for '15 are really nice.

    SX190 Vs SX192

    The only down side IMO of the 192 is the fuel consumption...my best cruise was at 26 mph @6000rpm burning about 10gph. Fastest 50.1 mph (GPS) @7400rpm +/- burning 30gph+... everthing else ( trim/radio/cup holder/cleats ect.. ) is better than the 190 and yes it is possible to put retractable...
