Ok so about a month ago I posted about my horrible service from a local marine mechanic, long story short took it there to get an elbow drain valve on my manifold replaced and when I got it back they chewed the teeth off my flywheel. So I took it to another place to get an estimate and they told me that the motor was water logged and whoever tried to start it did the damage. So now that its June and I'm still not boating I want to ask how to prevent this from happening again. All winter it was covered w the back end parked under a pine tree, nvr let snow sit on the cover and the wood sun deck above it is sealed on the bottom. I thought all should be good but apparently not, the only other thing I can think of is that when the marina had my boat we got 7" of rain over a 2 day period, did they leave it uncovered? Lol idk but what can I do to stop this?
