Hi, Recently antifouled the hull and repainted the bravo 3 outdrives, took the boat out to sea maybe 3 o 4 times since. This morning I dived to clean the drives and surprised to see several large stripes
of paint were gone, leaving only bare aluminium. I contacted immediately the marina guy who did the painting, he said he did spray primer and 2 coats of Merc phantom black enamel paint.
Did the guy use a primer that marry well with aluminium? I have no idea!
My marina is small, probably they will not allocate a freespace on the drydock for me so soon, so at the meantime will my outdrives prone to rapid corrosion ? How to protect them ?
I do not have a galvanic isolator and I heard that some boats have electrolysis problem.
Does anyone know about the cheap Yandina galvanic isolator ? worthwhile? Thks
