Great advice. I did hire the captain to train our family. I have a bilge heater running, but I will winterize very shortly.
Best regards,

This site will help you find a safety course [USCG Aux or US Power Squadron] near you. Your spouse and children 10 years and older should also take the class.

Have a great time with your boat!
