In addition to the corrosion protection devices, take the following steps to inhibit corrosion:
1.
Paint the power package. See Painting Your Power Package.
2. Annually spray the power package components on the inside of the boat with Corrosion Guard to protect the finish from
dulling and corrosion. You may also spray external power package components.
3. Keep all lubrication points, especially the steering system, shift, and throttle linkages, well lubricated.
4. Flush the cooling system periodically, preferably after each use.
