Check with your yard re any heater. Many will not allow an unattended live electrical hook up for stored boats.

If not, you should consider disconnecting the exhaust elbow so that the water lift muffler doesn't draw moist air in and out of the engine as the boat rocks fore and aft. Obviously wait till you're done running glycol through. Many people choose to change the oil/filter and tranny fluid. Some people also choose to remove the raw water pump impeller. Others also take the opportunity to change the fuel filter(s). You can also fog a diesel though there are mixed opinions. The manual actually suggests "roll" the engine once a month by pulling the decompression levers and running the starter till the oil pressure alarm clears. This keeps the bearings and rings from getting too dry. As recently mentioned, I have an immersion heater that I plug in. 200w keeps the condensation out and slightly heats the cabin.

Is there anything I need to do other running anti freeze through the fresh water intake until it comes out the exhaust?
