Good evening everyone,

Unfortunately, it's getting to that time of year where I need to put the boat up for the winter. I was hoping I could get some help on a question I have. I know how to drain the system by pulling the plugs from the V-drive and disconnect the small tubes that are connected to the manifolds. I also pull the cover off the impeller and the one drain plug on the heat exchanger. Where I struggle and am looking for advice or tips is the J shaped hose that comes off the heat exchanger. I've seen images of other indmar raptors that have a blue plug that's on the hose for draining. My does not have that helpful plug, and it's an absolute nightmare to try and remove it from one side and suck the water out of it. I'm really hoping for some advice on this one, I've seriously contemplated taking it somewhere for winterization just because of this one spot. Any ideas and advice would be much appreciated!

Thank you everyone!

Jon
