Winterizing is new to us. ???
Dan on a boat your size the job can sometimes be daunting ...

Not very hard
As Ron said, charge your batteries fully...
Oops, Todd remembered the head...
Engine is a bit more complicated with the boat out of the water
Don't forget the shower sump and overboard discharge
Larry, yes,I worry about all those plastic water connections.
If you have standing water
Thanks all
Dan, we're in Annapolis

Dan, went to your web site and the links are all 404 dead
Yes they are. My domain was hijacked
That sucks... say hi to bernie....
Do you have a watermaker?
thank goodness no!
That was the Admiral answering for me.
My concern is that you have to not only freeze proof it (with ANTIFREEZE) but you have to simulanteously pickle it.
You're wise to get someone to help you.
Tom, went over TD with a knowledgable guy.
