Someone on the list was indicating trouble getting all the oil out of their 3YM30 via extractor hose down the dip stick tube.

I had a similar issue, put the extractor hose down the dipstick tube and half a quart came out before it starting sucking air.

What I did was open both yellow oil change ports.  The oil "fell" and I was able to be get all of it out.  (OK most of it anyway)

Hope this helps whomever was having the issue.

My first winterizing on a Catalina 320.....  Done.
