305 fresh water cooled gas engines, Westerbeke Generator, and reverse cycle heat.
Still cold here, but planning to sunrise the boat myself this year to save a few bucks - and I've never done it before. The engines and genny got oil changes before getting winterized by the marina. I don't know if anyone has a decent checklist they could share? This is what I am guessing at...and did I mention I've never done it before.
Motors:
New fuel filters
Attach the impeller hoses
Close the drains on the water jackets
Assemble and close the strainers
Open the thru hulls
Start the engines
Warm 'em up, change the oil and filters
Generator
Open the thru hull and start ? Was going to consider skipping the oil change as it had literally no time on the new oil.
Flush and fill the water tank, check the pump and hot water, open the thru hulls for the reverse cycle and head.
What am I missing? Probably a ton of stuff. Thanks in advance for your help.
