Probably a stupid question, but does anyone ever winterize their boat? I am moving to Tampa in the fall. Does everyone pretty much store their boat at their house, or marinas and storage facilities?

No. Lived here all my life. It doesnt stay cold long enough to do any damage. It was 26 degrees here a couple of days ago, and no damage.

in north tampa (land o lakes) and no problems-but the boat is in the garage

no. long time florida boat owner, my boats have always been stored outside, no probs.
