    2010 SAN 230TE Winterize - 1st time

    Purchased a new to me 2010 230TE and hoping you guys can verify winterization procedure for me! Boat has the PCM ZR409 engine and doesn't have heater or shower. I have researched a little and ran across 2 different water flow diagrams (attached) showing plug/drains and one mentions engine block drains and the other doesn't?

    I was planning on running engine to temp, then pulling all drain plugs, re-installing drain plugs, then sucking the pink RV antifreeze thru it and be done. If I do that, I shouldn't have to pull hoses, correct?

    For the ballast, this boat doesn't have hard tanks in rear and has piggyback back in front. Planning on pouring RV antifreeze in drains, then running pumps to empty. That should pull the RV thru the pumps and be good for winter?

    Please let me know if this is incorrect, if I need to do something else or if I'm good to go?


    Thanks!​

      Are you sure that there isn't a heater core? Team edition boats were standard for that. And the 3 hard tanks were all removed? Or just the rear 2 were cut out and replaced with bags? The belly one would certainly have been a pain to cut out. Most 230s keep the belly and just add an arrow bag. I have an 09 with 3 stock plus 3 piggy backs. I don't do my own winterization on the engine but for the tanks, pour a bunch of pink down the overflow hose into the existing hard tank and run the pumps in reverse till its pushed out. If theres no tank, whatever 3 bag lines that runs to the 3 pumps.

          No heater core or red heater hoses. Engine does have a heat exchanger with a fresh water drain and a raw water drain. Raw water drain is a nipple with hose going to the thru-hull bearing assembly.

          Drained v-drive and exhaust manifolds today. Don't see where to drain engine block? Any help?

              If it has a heat exchanger the block will have antifreeze being a closed system and does not need to be drained.

                  It does. I'm now assuming the heat exchanger gets cooled/cools the antifreeze for engine from raw water.

                  I drained the raw water on heat exchanger and didn't touch the fresh water drain. Then sucked RV thru raw water system. I should be good?
