I want to go through everything before I put the boat in the water. Shoot me a list of things to service. So far I have oil, gear lube, plugs,fuel filter. I have no manuel so what did I leave out?

How old is the boat and do you know how well it was maintained or have any service records??? If its more than 3 years old or you don't know the history then:

distributor cap and rotor

pull drive, check alignment, gimbal bearing, and grease U-joints.

exhaust riser gaskets
