Don't mind me adding, that when you do first start the engine that it always stay's out of gear. Immediately look for oil pressure on the gauge and water exiting both exhaust ports within seconds. Look for leaks. Hopefully no alarms, and you can slowly let it warm up near idle, with the transmission lock-out engaged so it cannot go into gear and spin the prop shaft while warming up. Watch the temp gauge also and exhausts again and make sure the temp will not shoot up and overheat for whatever reason. Keep a fire extinguisher around, and hopefully someone to give a 2nd hand and eyes.

Appreciated !

1 hour ago, SkiPablo said:unless they left any hoses unhooked it should just be a matter of putting the drain plugs back in the boat. A lot of bigger shops just run antifreeze through the engines until they are at a certain level. But you could call the dealer and see what they did. Most of the time I think de-winterization is a gimmick
Appreciated!
