Hi is it a 4 stroke or 2, at the least you should change out your lower unit fluid, ck or change out your plugs ck all your lines and cables for wear, change out your water sep filter, greese all your zerks ck filters on motor and change if they look bad greese your steering , pull your prop and ch for any debris and greese your shaft, might even want to go to a dealer and have them hook it up to a computer and see really how many hrs are on it, and if any codes come up, and if its a 4 stroke you will need to change out your motor oil and filter also

one thing I forgot to add is they want you to change out your waterpump impeller once a yr but every other yr prob would work, I guess it would depend on how much you love running into sandbars
