The shower/cabin drain sump system must be properly winterized. Clean debris from the drain and sump and
flush for several minutes with fresh clean water. After the system is clean, pump the drain sump as dry as
possible. Then pour a potable water antifreeze mixture into the shower drain until antifreeze has been pumped
through the entire system and out of the thru-hull.

For additional information please refer to the Fresh Water System chapter.

Raw Water System
Completely drain the raw water systems. Disconnect all hoses and blow the water from the system. Use only
very low air pressure when doing this to prevent possible system damage. Because of the check valve
mechanism built in the raw water washdown pump, blowing the lines will not remove the water from the raw
water pump. Remove the outlet hoses on the pump. Turn the pump on and allow it to pump out any remaining
water....about a cupful.

A recommended alternative to the above-mentioned procedure is the use of commercially available nontoxic,
potable water system antifreeze. If potable water antifreeze is used, pour the mixture into a pail and put the
raw water intake lines into the solution. Run the pumps one at a time until the antifreeze solution is visible
at all raw water faucets and discharge fittings and drains. Be sure antifreeze has flowed through all of the raw
water drains.

Make sure to run the stern fishbox macerator pump until all the water is removed from the fishbox and the
pump. To avoid damage to the pump, be careful not to run the pump dry for more than 10 seconds.

Marine Toilet
The marine toilet must be properly winterized by following the manufacturer’s winterizing instructions in the
marine toilet owner’s manual. Drain the intake and discharge hoses completely using low air pressure if
necessary. The head holding tank and macerator discharge pump must be pumped dry and one gallon of potable
water antifreeze poured into the tank through the deck waste pump out fitting. After the antifreeze has been
added to the holding tank, open the overboard discharge valve and activate the macerator pump until the
antifreeze solution is visible at the discharge thru-hull.

Make sure you follow the marine toilet manufacturer's winterizing instructions exactly.

Bilge
Coat all metal components, wire busses, and connector plugs in the bilge with a protecting oil. It is also
important to protect all strainers, seacocks and steering components. The bilge pumps and bilge pump lines
must be completely free of water and dried out when the boat is laid up for the winter in climates where freezing
occurs. Compartments in the bilge that will not drain completely should be pumped out and then sponged
until completely free of water. Dry the hull bilge and self-bailing cockpit troughs. Water freezing in these
areas could cause damage.

Hard Top
It is imperative that all drain holes in the legs are open and that the legs are completely free of water. Remove
the canvas and thoroughly clean and store in a safe, dry place. Remove all electronics. Coat all wire connectors
and bus bars in the helm compartment with a protecting oil.

Clean the aluminum frame with soap and water and dry thoroughly. Apply an aluminum metal protector to
the entire frame to reduce corrosion and pitting.
