Check to insure your engine block drain valves are tight before winter storage. Second thought is weird but offered anyhow. Is antifreeze fresh? Could there be a blockage somewhere where the antifreeze is diluted and freezes which would expand and force the top stuff out somehow. I said it was a weird thought! I will discuss it with the mechanic at the yard who is pretty sharp and seen most things.

Every Spring, there is approximately a half a cup or 250 ml of antifreeze in the pan. I have looked everywhere for the source of this antifreeze but I can't find out where it is coming from. The boat was launched 3 weeks ago, the engine has about 3 hours on it since then, the pan is still under the engine but there is no antifreeze in it. And the antifreeze does not appear during the sailing season. I notice every Spring the level of the antifreeze in the 'overflow container' is down a bit and I refill to the 'FULL LEVEL' but that container is not leaking. It's a mystery! Anybody experience this and/or have any ideas where this antifreeze could be originating from?
