Abstract
A wheeled, open reservoir having a hood like splash guard extending upward from the rear wall and opening forward. Swivel front wheels allow placement relative to a boat outdrive. A high pressure pump is mounted forward of the front wall and protected from the solution by the splash guard and is part of a circulation system having a pickup hose, a strainer, and a faucet type valve, to deliver high pressure fluid, controlled by the valve, to an applications supply hose which is connected to an “ear muff” connection with the cooling water opening of an outdrive of an inboard/outboard marine engine and drive or an outboard motor and drive, or, alternatively, connected to a trigger sprayer valve controlling winterizing fluid to a connecting line for an inboard marine engine or boat water system. There may be a re-circulation line to the system reservoir.
