Got a 2002 Sailfish and looking for advice on how to winterize the shower sump pump?

Do you just pour a gallon of pink down the shower drain and let the pump flush it thru the hoses.....or is there something else i need to do?

Also, i unscrewed the rectangle-shaped box on the cabin floor (to get a better view of the sump box and pump) but it does not come off as it seems to be caulked....and the 6 inch pie plate does not provide enough room to access the sump to clean and inspect the pump etc. How can i gain access?

Cut the caulk with a knife and pull it up. Deck plate is for getting to valve handles.

1 qt of antifreeze is more than enough, add some in bilge space too.
