Winterizing...a foul topic because it signals the end of season but I must address it. I pumped out my fresh water, waste water tank & bilge. I put 2.5 gallons of antifreeze in the fresh tank and pumped at the sink until it came out. Put the same amount in the head and 'dry pumped' it into the tank, leaving about a pint in the head. Put one gallon in the bilge, pumped until I saw it come out the stern. Should that be enough antifreeze or should I have put more in each location, given that you can never get ALL the water out of each?

I gave instruction that Illusion would be ready to haul as of Nov 1. I may sail once more over Halloween weekend. The NH daily highs are already below 60 and continue to drop.
