I just had over $2500 worth of work done on my Mercruiser and some of it was due to the boat not being used for a few years. For various reasons I did not get to using the boat. I had dealt with the gas tank issues so that was not an issue but both tilt/trim rams had issues and needed to be replaced with rebuilt ones.
All the bellows needed replacing but maybe it was time anyway.
The engine had a lot of rust at startup but settled down after a bit.
The mechanic went through 5 gallons of gas so hopefully he ran it enough to shake things out.
So run your boat often.
