In the spring, check fluids and do prechecks, then Fire it up if it can, and "next" winterization, place the batteries on maintenance chargers for the winter

Yes,...i will definitely do that....i bought it in December and the marina was nice enough to winterize it and shrink wrap it as a courtesy.....mechanic said he unhooked the batteries and in the spring just “ charge em up” and i should be good to go....guess i have to wait and seemwhat kind of batteries are under there.
