Default Should I add antifreeze to engine

Hello,

i have 496ho. It will be a few weeks before I drop off my boat to my dealer. Temps next week for three days will be high 39 low 25. I will pump out water but I’m wondering if I should pump coolant through rest of motor. Will it be safe the next few days?

thanks

You already have coolant/antifreeze in the actual engine. Nothing will freeze in the temps you listed
