MUMM36 ZAMBONI Winterizing

With the weather getting colder, the five owners got together winterize ZAMBONI.

Got down to National around 10:30.

Michael brought his trailer and put it directly under the bow:

We were able to dump all the sails and cushions from the bow into the trailer.

THAT WAS EASY

We ran some extension chords and Phil vacuumed out the bilges, while I removed the failing shrink wrap tape from the starboard window.  Replaced it with some UV resistant tarp tape.  This will stop the water leaking from this window.  The failed sealant will have to be removed in the spring and re-done.

I then moved onto winterizing the head, while Michael and Phil winterized the motor and removed the batteries.  I took the batteries home for charging and storage.

We put all the lines in a storage bin to keep them in one place.   Michael will be storing everything in his work studio.

Kris and Ash went through all the storage cubbies and removed anything we no longer need.

With the 5 owners, it only took about 90 minutes to get the work done before going into the dining room for brunch.

The bottom job we did in the spring looks great!

The magnesium anode is pretty rough:

Here it what it looked like before launch:
