Just out of curiosity. Why can’t you DIY?

Read the owners manual and execute. It is really simple.

Get a heater, mine cost 219 I believe. The caframo heater.

I'm up in the Pacific NW where I deal with about 30+ freezing nights or more a year. Not a lot but it's more than BR.

I do not winterize. Heater is plugged in. Drive is lowered and covered with a wooden box I made.

What kinda boat you have?

If its an inboard and you really don't want to do it, bring it to bennetts ski school.

FYI your winterization should roughly consist of a new water pump impeller and new engine oil. We don't get nearly cold enough to crack an engine block. So with about $50 in parts and 2 hours you can DIY

As far as on-site maybe call bennetts and see if their mechanic still does service calls. Even if he doesn't, he'll be able to point you in the right direction. It won't be cheap, definitely won't be $50

David has done good work on my boat before. I actually need to bring it back to him for a new water pump
