Typically what does it cost to have these boats winterized at the dealer? Engine, heater, and tanks along with an oil and filter service?

I don't know what dealer price is but I wouldn't pay it. ask around find your local boat guy that all the locals use and go to him and save some $$$. I think I paid like 500 with my mc x2 last year I paid 124 to local that everyone recommended. granted dealer does a complete service and local only did winterization

My local dealer is great and I trust them with my boat. Think I paid around $230 for a full winterization which in my experience is pretty reasonable.

I think $240 is around the number I have paid in the past for a dealer to do it.

250 sounds right to me, my buddy said his dealer charged him 650 for his 2012 247, because of all the ballast tanks. I never did anything to my ballast for 7 yrs and never had a problem???

hmm.. I would look at the ticket on the 2012 247. Last I checked 90% of the Malibu boats that I have seen winterized had ballast tanks and the cost as still in the $240 price range.

Ya my winterization included all of the ballasts. Before my Axis, another dealer charged me $450 and I knew from the beginning I was getting ripped off. I had an I/O at the time and they claimed servicing the lower gear unit hiked up the price. Didn't take my boat there again.

About $250. This is a service with oil, oil filter and change tran fluid.
Wasn't much to winterize because I had already drained the block and manifold.
Probably going to start doing this myself because it is about a two hour haul to get to dealer.

For me, dealer is about 350 with oil change. A local shop that comes out to the house did it in my own yard for $170 and I skipped the 90 min drive one way to drop off and pick up
