Unless you have inspection requirements, there should be no need to ever pull the plug, especially the transom plug. 

Isn't it the law that the plug has to be out while you trailer? Pretty sure they added it a while back to help prevent the spread of invasive species. Also handy to have out if you hit a rain storm while you're driving.

Hi new owner of 2017, Axis A20, 120 hrs, 409 engine . The boat is bone stock and I know it’s had limited service. What would be recommendations for service?, I know it had a fresh oil change in filter. Have ran a tank fresh ethanol free gas in it but still seems to idle a little rough. Is this normal?

A good start might be a tune up. Cap, plugs and new wires. I’d also change the vdrive oil so you know it’s been done.

Ran a group 31 deep cycle interstate with a basic solar charger system that came with the lift motor box for years with no issues on a hydraulic lift. Would raise and lower the lift nearly every day, sometimes up and down 2/3 times. If you have access to power and lift motor is 12v just run a battery charger if solar isn’t keeping up. No need to over think it with lipo batteries. 

Just curious why you didnt consider a 23 M220 as there are lots left over from last year at a good deal. Regardless what you pick Id get an M6 minimum and if you find an LT4 I'd go bigger. Ive never heard anyone every complain and say they wish they would have gotten a smaller engine.
