What a shame, nice boat like that and it hasn't gotten wet since the 4th........ let me know if you ever need someone to take it off your hands for the extra space.

I would drain the water from the block also, and depending how long its going to sit might put some a/f in the block just for the rust inhibitor properties, I would also before adding a/f, top off the fuel tank and add a stabilizer to the fuel system like marine grade sta-bil and run it on the muffs for 10 minutes or so.
