Welcome.
Hopefully you have a jabsco or reverso oil change system for those big cats. If not you have to pull it from the fill tube like most of us have to.

Welcome aboard.
Please fill in your user info. It will help us answer future questions.
Those engines hold a good amount of oil. I'll second the thought on an oil chnaging system.

Thanks Everyone. I finally got the boat launched and changed the oil. Do I have to change the fuel filter every year? I bought a pair but the wrench for the oil filter was too big.
Regards
Sha
