You bet! Only takes one time in the low twenties or teens. Last year was a very mild winter but we got there twice.

True, what happens if the motor freezes up? And what do you do to fix it?

CHECK THE OIL IN THE FOOT OF THE KICKER, MAKE SURE THERE IS NO WATER IN THE FOOT, IF THERE IS DRAIN THE OIL AND WATER AND REPLACE THE SEALS AND LEAVE EMPTY TIL YOU PUT THE BOAT BACK IN THE WATER NEXT SPRING, BE SURE TO REPLACE THE OIL BEFORE LAUNCHING. REMOVE THE DRAIN PLUG FROM THE TRANSOM AND WIP...

So I moved my girl friends parents two weeks ago and we put the boat in the garage. Noticed it took up to much room so my girl friends dad told me to take it to my house.

If I get an enclosed canopy do I need a cover for the boat also? Thanks guys

thanks guys, where should I look to find a canopy and a cover? looking to buy a canopy thats durable and somewhat inexpensive.

You have a great point! What can I expect to pay for a canopy vs a cover?

Okay guys I posted a question a month or so back asking of any storage places in town but all seem to be pretty steep in price. So my parents are letting my gf's dad's boat stay at our house because the new neighborhood they are moving to wont allow boats or trailers on the driveway etc. so my paren...

We just installed pioneer marine speakers in our boat and they sound sooooo good!
