Minimum change plugs, take the prop off and regrease the hub.
Some guys I know wait till they burn the first tank of oil off before changing the plugs. Changing the water pump every couple of years is good. Especially if your in a sandy area.
The gas filter is a must. I've gone to stabilizing the gas all season long. Just heard of too many issues out there. Knock on wood its all helped so far.
Also keep an extra set of plugs on the boat along with an extra filter.
