I did last fall. You'll see posts if it didn't go well. Probably still 8 weeks out before we go to lake.

I did the Easy Drain....took mine to the lake in January....was 4 degrees if I remember correctly when I went through Green River UT on the way to Lake Powell....was 18 at home. Boated for the day, dumped the Easy Drain when I hit the ramp leaving, lowered the props and drained well while wiping down the boat and putting covers on...headed home and forgot about it. Dealer has it now replacing a faulty sensor and that's all he does on a typical winterization in Denver other than he also adds Stabil Marine to the fuel and fogs the engine....I didn't do the fog but did add Stabil. Mine was drained from October til January when I went to the lake and then redrained from January til now. Works great if you follow the Volvo directions.

I did the same as elk, total easy drain winterazation. I consulted with dealer, they advised to leave easy drain in open position. I left myself a huge note to close back before starting in spring. Tuscany taught us all a lesson on that. Also did stabil. I’ll also report back on success or failure.
