Re: Antifreeze raw water system?
I think you're creating too much "engine risk". As a first matter, if you can get your engine completely out of the water on these pontoons, then winterize it once and forget it until your season starts again. While all internal combustion engines are made to run, rather than sitting, running once per week is totally uncalled for. If you feel compelled to run the engine, once per month will do. Then do cooling system winterization again (no need to do any cylinder fogging). I have to assume you're stabilizing the gasoline for your off-season period. Since your VP GL is carbureted, a few squirts of starting fluid at each monthly start will help out. But unless starting that engine makes you feel real good, or commissioning assistance is hard to come by where you are, de-commission once and turn to your indoor sports.
