My mast is usually out during the winter...left it in this year for
reasons...I use a cheap -35C windshield washer in the bilge to prevent
any water from freezing before I get to the boat to pump it out. Mast in
or mast out, I don't use either the manual or electric pump(s) in the
winter....both lines and pumps are primed with the same -35C rated
windshield washer to prevent any chance of freezing causing trouble.
Has worked well for the past 16 winters.

visit the boat again.

Ron, Why are you putting anti-freeze in the bilge?
