Draining
Laws/Regulations vary from state to state, so please be aware of
any regulations that apply to you. In most situations, draining the
water from the engine and drive train will be sufficient to meet the
requirements of AIS prevention of the engine/drive train.
Draining instructions for your engine/drive train can be found in
“Storage and Winter Lay-Up” on page 8-1 in this manual.
OTE: N Please refer to the draining documentation from your boat
manufacturer for draining procedures of components such
as ballast tanks in your boat.
Decontamination

of the engine/drive train may be necessary. If decontamination
is required, follow the regulations in force for the area you are in.
The following procedures will help you through the process. Drain
the engine as described in “Storage and Winter Lay-Up” on page
8-1 of this manual. Reinstall the drain plugs in their designated
locations.

or other permanently mounted flushing device. See “Sea
