      Extended life, silicate free, red (diesel rated) is what the majority of the manufactures specify.

      Ditto – Both Deltaville Boatyard and Deaton’s in Oriental strongly concur.

      Yanmar specifies Dextron. Anything else voids your warranty.

      I’ve been reluctant to use engine anti-freeze. I use potable anti-freeze to
      winterize the engine. For the engine, I use the -100f stuff. For the rest
      of the water systems I use -50f stuff. I’m reluctant to pump poison
      overboard.
