This is a DIY project that you CAN do on your own though.

Rob MacLeod, The Informed Boater, has put together a how to video with simple step-by-step instructions for completing an oil change, which is a good idea at the end of the season as part of the winterizing process.

Have a look and see if Rob's instruction doesn't inspire your confidence to give this process a try. We'd love to hear what you think of the video and how your oil change turned out.
