    Ski locker water and winterization

    I'm pretty sure I have one of the infamous leaks that makes my boat take on water. I'll have to troubleshoot that in the spring. Today I winterized the boat at a marina "work rack", since I keep it in dry storage there. I noticed some water in the ski locker that wouldn't drain out. At first I...

    Flushing engine on 242 limited s

    Quick question on flushing the motors with water. Dose it hurt to rev the motor up to 3-4K and leave it there when flushing the motor out? I was reading in the book and it says to run it to a high idle. Not exactly sure what that means. I just bought my first jet boat 3 weeks ago and am still...

    When are you winterizing? And how does my list sound?

    I live in NE so winters are pretty harsh. I might go out one or two more times this season for some leaf peeping, but the season is coming to a close pretty quickly. My winterization plan of attack: Fluids: *Fill & stabilize fuel (run through system for 5-10 minutes to circulate) *Burp out...
