Some great tips just like I was hoping for due to all of the experience on this board.
I really like the dipstick idea and am learning a lot from other posts.

When I got my first boat that was big enough to overnight on (27 foot Searay) I rented my first marina slip. Lucky for me that in the slip next to me was a mechanical engineer living on his boat while working on a project for a nearby DuPont plant. Lucky because he was always happy to help when I was doing stuff on my boat. He was full of great tips and practical advice which I was soaking up like a sponge. I credit him with keeping me from giving up on boating because I couldn't afford to pay a shop for maintenance or repairs.

Thanks to everyone who has responded so far. Keep those ideas coming ��
