Winterizing
I have a Hayco 195RB that was not used this year. Does it need to be rewinterized with new antifreeze ir can I just leave it with what was done last fall?

You're good. No need to change anything. If you haven't already I would check the roof etc again unless it's been covered or stored inside.

X2, also might double check your mouse proofing, and tire air pressure.

If the antifreeze in the toilet has evaporated, add some more to keep the ball seal wet.

And in the same vein, pour a bit more down the sink/shower drains in case it has evaporated from those traps as well to keep the smells down.

I top off my toilet and p-traps with a couple drops of mineral oil. It stops the water and antifreeze from evaporating.
Do not use vegetable oil, it will be a gooey mess in the spring. Mineral oil is the same as cutting board oil

Ok, I'm new so bear with me please! Winterizing is something that I'm worried about. Why? Because I've never done it and I simply cannot remember everything the dealer told me while going over our 25RB. Is there some sort of checklist available that I could use to complete the task? Thank you so much!

Welcome to the forum, I don't have on where to go but YouTube is a wealth of info and your manual if you have one.

Your manual should give pretty good instructions on the steps to take in winterizing. I know mine explained blowing out the lines, pumping in AF etc.
