Stainless Steel props. on Bravo outdrives

[dave1dpc]

Since changing to s/s from ally late this season I have noted a much increase in anode depreciation than normal. Would coating the props. in a thin resin [insulation] limit the anode wear. In addition to the outdrive anodes I have fixed a large earthed bar anode twixt the legs mounted on the transom. D

You should have a Mercathode system on those drives, if so check it has a direct connection to the battery ay all times.

Is this on a bravo 1, 2 or 3 ? Presuming not the latter, with them likely being stainless as standard. Bravo are known for their corrosion issues. Especially in a marina with poor shore power set ups.
