Turns out I was pretty busy this year and never took my boat out of storage. The few times I went out, I just fished on my friends' boats. My boat was winterized for winter of 2014/2015 by the marina, and stored outdoors after being shrink-wrapped. I haven't touched it since, and it is still in the storage spot. 

 

I'll be moving it to another location for storage this coming winter. I'm wondering if I will need to re-winterize it again for the 2015/2016 season. 

 

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Should be good but I'm no mechanic. Our boat experienced the same technical difficulties this year LOL
