What do I need to do to "summerize" an 07 Nautique 210?

[tomld]

So being entirely new to the boating world, what do I need to do to summerize my 07 super air nautique 210? Last fall I had a dealer winterize it, but they are 30 days out to get it summer ready.

Wondering what a guy needs to do. Shop said they typically connect all water lines, replace all plugs, check batteries, start/warm up & check for leaks. I get all that, except the water lines part.

Any help is appreciated.

I would call or drop by the dealer who winterized it and ask them for a copy of the check list/procedure they utilize as it will differ from one shop to the next. Some dealers drain the water out and leave the plugs out, some drain & refill with marine antifreeze.

one key thing to check is the impeller for the raw water pump as most folks pull it out and hence you will need to put it back and reassemble the RWP. It's not hard, but if you didn't see how it came apart it might be a bit confusing. Also watch out for the o- ring for the strainer bowl, it will leak without it.

First thing I would do is think about not using that same shop to winterize again! You paid them good money I'm sure to winterize for you and to jerk you around with 30days out crap to summerize is BS! Anyway yes check the impeller and carefully look over if all the hoses have been put back on and the clamps all tightened it should be pretty easy to see that stuff. Not sure if you had the oil changed in the fall or not but you'll want to do that if not. As for spark plugs check the manaul on whether their due for a change. The harder part will be to make sure all the drain plugs are back in their proper place, if the dealer did remove the plugs he should have given you a bag with them in it or zip tied the bag to the stering wheel or somewhere on the boat, my dealer puts the plugs back in place. That said go through and check that all plugs and hoses appear back in place and hook that baby up to a water source fire her up! Open the hatch and check and see if there are leaks.
