Need Some Advice & Counsel on winterizing a fresh water system on a 2001 Sea Ray 280 SS.
Would appreciate comment as to the adequacy of my intended plan, what needs to change and suggestions as to anything else I may need to do to ensure the system is adequately protected. There are tree sinks, a Vaccu-flush head, a 24 gal fresh water tank, a 20 gal waste holding tank and a transom sprayer. My planned sequence of steps is as follows:
1. Flush toilet several times
2. Pump out holding tank
3. Empty fresh water tank & system by running faucets until water tank is empty
4. Drain remaining water from fresh water tank into bilge compartment
5. Add 1-2 gal antifreeze to fresh water tank & 1 gal directly into toilet
6. Flush toilet and run all (3) sink faucets and transom sprayer until antifreeze is seen
Thank you
