OH COME ON!!! We live in sunny Socal...no winterizing here. You should be using these things all year long.
I am working on winter fishing lures for Newport & Bassin' lures. No plans to winterize at my house. We need to plan a jetski tournament for newport harbor around the 1st of the year for spotties and halibut.
On a more serious note....Even in Socal if you are not going to use your ski for more than a month or two do at least two things:
1. Add Stabil to your gasoline.
2. Disconnect the battery as HS said.
