I used to turn the motor over to blow out any water that might damage the empeller if it froze, but I guess that the new motors drain completely.
I always worried about the water in the livewell and bilge pumps freezing and doing damage, but I've heard that they are designed to drain any water that might be in the housing and it will drain when you pull the drain plug. I guess you're good to go. Just park it in a big heated garage and there's nothing to fret.
