In another month or so, I plan to get my 2008 Seadoo Challenger out of the garage and into the lake. This will be my first Spring after the first winter. Is there anything I need to do before hitting the water?

I need to reconnect the battery but is that all? Thanks for any tips!

Make sure to put your plugs in! lol Actually I just put mine in after a 5 month storage. I turned on the electrical switch above the battery and it started right up. I assumed you put fuel stabilizer in the boat. I had stored mine with 1/2 tank of stablilized fuel and it had no problems at all. I just came off of break-in so there may be other smarter folks out there with advice, but I think you are good to go. I also have a 2008 Challenger 180.

Happy wave jumping!
 
I think your supposed to change the spark plugs and maybe one or two other things after winter storage but I'm not sure. May want to call a service center and ask.
I was 2 hrs shy of the 10 hr mark on mine. Took it out Sat got two more hours on it then dropped off for the sevice. They will change oil, spark plugs etc so not worried about spring maintenance in my case.
