I'll be taking my 18' stern drive to a local marina for indoor storage over the winter. I'll have them do winterization and out drive inspection and maintenance. Any tips, lessons learned etc.. of things I should do to prepare? There's about a 1/4 tank of gas so I'll throw some Stabil in. I'll disconnect the batteries. Put the storage cover on it.

Any other wisdoms? Thanks

Leave the batteries hooked up till they are done servicing it. Also, some boats have to many wrong colored wires going to the battery. At least label them pos and net, zip tie the cables together that go to each post. I've seen to many rats nest of wires....lol
