So far October is making up for the rainy August in the Northeast. To little to late. Supposed to be a beautiful weekend, high 70's low 80's and 5mph WNW winds. Hoping to make it through to the end of October before calling it quits.

Who's still in and who's done???

I live in Michigan and never winterize until mid November.

There will usually be a couple of nights when I need to put a light bulb in the engine room but I have seen too many nice days pop up even in November.

I live in CT and will be taking my last spin this weekend... got pretty cold here last night.... 34*... I like the light bulb idea...! any suggestion for the drive since the boat is on the trailer?

drive shouldnt need anything...majority of the water should drain out.

Yes, the drive should self drain if lowered completely. Keep in mind though that my boat is garaged so it's always a little warmer in there.

the only concern you should have is if there is water in the gear oil...other than that, there is nothing to be done.

I'm done for this year but I'm hoping for a better year next year.
We are currently in a nice stretch of good weather though, so I'm sorry the boat is not ready.

Normally will winterize in November, but this year I just winterized, due to low lake levels.
