So I am doing some reading here and I found this in the winterizing info...
16. Store the boat with the bow up and the drive down. If the drive is up the exhaust part of the drive behind the prop can fill with water, freeze and crack.......Not Good!
It's also a lot easier on the u-joint bellows to have it in the down position.
As it turns out I left mine up last winter! Is this talking about the outer casing of the outdrive (mine is an alpha one), something that you can visibly see on the outside? Or would I need to pressure test it to find out? Thanks in advance for any advice that anybody might have!
