    Wasn’t there some discussion in an earlier thread — possibly on the lost boards — that suggested that copper or nickel anti-seize was a no-no, especially for salt-water motors, as these created a galvanic reaction that actually exacerbated the corrosion?

    YES! Some types of anti seize could actually cause MORE corrosion due to the dis-similar metals. But, I’m sure they make products that are compatible with the aluminum and salt water, and I just didn’t want to dismiss the whole anti seize product line.
