Yes, and I will be calling them today as I fear they may soon be declaring bankruptcy. 

Wow I have not been paying attention but just read your last comment and had no idea our Tommy's dealer could be tanking soon??  They sure paid a fortune for that booth they had at the Detroit BoatShow the wife and I went to 

A lot less expensive when something does freeze on a closed cooling engine. 
 

I’m sure you’d know this but just make sure it’s not a missing drain plug just leaking out water. Gets mistaken for a freeze plug more than you think.

Wouldn't an M5 be closed cooling?  So basically it is your exhaust and a heat exchanger to worry about?

I suppose that's true and maybe good news.  No experience with a blown freeze plug but running it up to the dealer today to have them examine it.

If your boat is at a dealership for warranty work and the dealer files for bankruptcy, could there be some delay in getting your boat retrieved from the bankruptcy trustee?  

I remember a Nissan Dealer bankruptcy a number of years ago where people who had purchased but not yet taken possession of the cars got listed as unsecured creditors. (unsecured creditors are low on the list of people to get paid)   Scary stuff.
