    I had an aluminum boat that was heavily pitted below the waterline, apparently the result of galvanic corrosion before I bought it. It spent its life in acid water in upstate NY with an electric start motor on it.

    Not having a better solution, I would install a master cutoff switch on the battery and only turn on the power when the boat was in use.
