Took my lift out a couple weeks ago, and most of my dock. I have left my boat in the water, tied up to the remaining dock sections so I could get out and fish when I wanted before ice up. We have temps predicted to be below freezing all day later this week. From what I have read, as long as I keep the lower units of both the main and kicker motors in the water and let it warm up, should be OK? Any other things I should do?

Just make sure the motor is peeing before you leave the dock. If you have a temp guage monitor it.
