Hi guys, just wanted to introduce myself and show my new to me boat that i got for free from my wife's grandpa. We invested about 1k to get it running about 2 years ago and i have decided to start learning on how to work on this thing myself, Specially since id like to get a newer boat in the near future. First question i have is what kind of oil and filter should i use on this thing and how much? Engine is the colvo penta 225e v8 and outdrive is 275. Im guessing its supposed to be pumped out of the dip stick hole like other boats? I am getting it ready for summer and also would like to know what other things should i look for before taking it out. Here is a couple pics of it, interior is a little shot but its ok i cant complain. Thanks guys!
