Re: salt water motors

[Phil Budne]

Running it in salt water. They are worse if they are not run in fresh water after running in the salt. I have a lake on the way home, so I back the rig in and run the motor a few minutes.
The outside of it needs a fresh water bath from your hose at home. The warmer the water you run in the worse it gets, eventually all the fasteners get aluminum corrosion around them making them very hard not to break on removal.
