Engine wise not much of an effort For me. The engine's water jacket if filled with an antifreeze mix already. Kind of necessary up here. When the boat is pulled the marina flushes antifreeze through the raw water system so that's taken care of.
I'll add your comments regarding the head to the list I've been developing.
The 355 is definitely a bigger winterizing effort than our Catalina 30 was. I'm sure, though, next time 'round with winterizing will be easier.

Hi Bill,
Those are whale fittings, but you only need a couple of elbows and a couple of 1 foot hose pieces cut to size. Once you remove the heater sheathed hoses, you connect the hot and cold together (blue to red). Here’s a photo and if this is confusing contact me offline. I simply keep setup together and remove in spring...

Thanks all for the great input, Ken that is what I was afraid of maybe corkwill do the trick.The tanks on the 355 seem to be made of a lot thinner plastic than the one on the 310 which i never had any leaks with. and Jon thats basically the proceedure that i have been doing, but i will add your idea of a manifold. I believe your right Jon the only way to ensure no leaks is to have the inspection ports plastic welded in. I may investigate finding someone locally who can weld plastic.

John is correct. I initially installed the Camco bypass, but had a leaking problem with the plastic adapter that came with the kit. I also found that if I don't disconnect the water hoses from the heater I still had a partial vacuum and it took forever to drain the tank. Instead of running to the store and getting the fitting John is talking about, I simply took 2 6" pieces of whale hose and an elbow to bypass. Took 5 minutes and I've been doing it this way ever since.
