RACV Marine commissioned me to write this article on winterising a boat motor.

Winterising is the practice of protecting a marine engine from corrosion and other deterioration when not used over winter.

The audience for this article is quite knowledgeable. The article therefore had to be authoritative and informative, while remaining accessible and not getting lost in excessive technical detail.

To that end, I based the piece on an interview with an expert, an experienced Melbourne-based marine mechanic.
