New to me 160 SS with 90HP 4 stroke Mercury outboard. I'm in North Carolina where during the winter it gets below freezing on some nights but goes back to warmer fishing weather during the day. Do I need to pull the boat each night it is supposed to go below freezing to avoid engine damage or can I leave in the water. If I leave in the water, will lowering the engine to the down position drain water in the engine in order not to freeze?
