What tips do you all have for prepping my 165 HO Impulse for spring? I have a trip down to Havasu planned for late April, and wanted to get a start on the maintenance items so that she's ready to go when we leave. I had planned on doing an oil change/spark plugs, then it sounds like I should go through all of the hose fittings and make sure they're all good and tight, but I wasn't sure what I should be doing beyond those two items.
She has 55 hours on her, and I've had all of the maintenances done on it thus far at the dealer (scheduled maintenances, winterizations, spring preps). Given the costs involved and the relative simplicity of the work done and detailed on the invoices by the dealer in past seasons, I really think I can handle the spring prep by myself with some simple tools/supplies. Let me know if I'm incorrect on that, however.
I've had no issues with the boat thus far, and it's been running just fine all the seasons I've had her out. There's only been relatively minor cosmetic issues fixed that were covered under warranty after I first got it. Also, it's stored in a climate-controlled garage all winter, completely out of the weather, and I keep the battery on a smart charger during the off season. It's a 2015, so 3 years old this spring on all of the equipment on the boat.
