just as you are doing, drop it in to a service centre once a year for a gearbox oil change, grease on prop shaft, water pump check/change
cheers

welcome to the site ray , general maintainence is about what your doing. like blaze said you should take it in for a major service every 12 months.
do you have the original owners handbook for your outboard? it will explain the recomended maintainence procedures.
cheers
