Corrosion Control Anode
Your outboard has a corrosion control anode installed on the
gearcase. An anode helps protect the outboard against galvanic
corrosion by sacrificing its metal to be slowly corroded instead of
the outboard metals.
The anode requires periodic inspection especially in saltwater
which will accelerate the erosion. To maintain this corrosion
protection, always replace the anode before it is completely
eroded. Never paint or apply a protective coating on the anode
as this will reduce effectiveness of the anode.
