    96 175 faststrike storing it without gearcase connected

    Asking to know if I can store my boat without the gearcase on it to work on oever the winter months.

    Do I need to do anything different to it, close off the exhaust port, etc,...?

    I hit a rock, damaged my prop and skeg and now its leaking at the prop shaft.

    No time to fix now, but don't have back and forth access to my boat through the winter

    No problem storing without it attached I'd put some masking tape over the bottom of the midsection to keep varmints out.
