Winterizing, is it so tough? Any help?

[cyberbubba]

I just purchased a 1988 2150 Capri Cuddy, and I need to winterize it. I have the original manuals, and they seem straight forward, but called a guy locally and he wants 400.00 to winterize the boat. From what the manual says, this seems like a bit pricey for what is recommended. Any guideance on do's and don'ts would be much appreciated.
Thanks! d

cyberbubba, welcome to iboats.
Might want to ask your question in the boat topics non engine forum also.
Again, welcome aboard.
