if i read that right....just drain the motor really good and the boat,livewells,etc, and cover it up
I do this all winter (hot water discharge, air temp 15) make sure you turn the motor over after you pull the boat out . this runs all the water out of the water pump, don't start it just bump it over a couple times. When you go to start it again make sure the pump is working some times its best to start it run for a couple minutes shut off a couple then restart this always gets my pump working better. spray the trailer pads with wd40 this helps the boat from freezing to the trailer. I also spray my control levers and the winch strap all have a tendency to freeze. Big girls like to play in the winter tooooooo.
