CORROSION PROTECTION
Galvanic Corrosion
Galvanic corrosion can result in serious damage to
any metal component of your Marker One boat that
is in the water. Galvanic corrosion is the
deterioration of metals due to the effects of
electrolytic action. When dissimilar metals are
immersed in a conductive fluid such as saltwater,
an electric current is produced, similar to the action
of a battery. The softest of the metals will be the
first to become damaged.
Galvanic corrosion can occur in fresh water or salt
water; however, salt, brackish and polluted waters
accelerate galvanic corrosion.
A self-sacrificing anode can be mounted to your
Marker One boat to help prevent damage to metal
components from galvanic corrosion. The anode
will require frequent inspections. If the anode
shows deterioration of 50% or more, it must be
replaced for continued protection.
Refer to the propulsion unit operator’s manual and
your Marker One dealer for requirements on
galvanic corrosion protection.
Salt Water
If your Marker One is in contact with salt water,
remove it from the water after each use and flush it
from top to bottom, inside and out with fresh water.
Clean hardware and spray with a marine corrosion
inhibitor every month or more often, if possible. Salt
water can also affect the engine. Contact your
dealer for additional information about using your
boat in salt water. DO NOT store your Marker One
on carpeted bunks or any other type of surface that
can hold salt or any other chemicals near or on the
surface of the boat. These surfaces will corrode
and damage the boat. Sacrificial anodes can be
installed to help reduce the chances of damage to
your boat. Call your Marker One dealer if you have
any questions.
Refer to the propulsion unit operator’s manual for
manufacturer’s saltwater operating
recommendations.
CANVAS
The optional bow and/or cockpit tonneau covers,
bimini top or bimini enclosure on your Marker One
boat are manufactured from top-quality materials to
provide you with years of trouble-free service.
The following information is provided to help you
maintain the appearance and ease of operation.
Marker One uses Sunbrella
®
, a woven fabric made
of 100% solution-dyed acrylic fiber. It is very
colorfast and will withstand long-term exposure to
the sun (ultra-violet) without excessive fading or
deterioration.
• Do not store canvas wet or in an unventilated,
moist area.
• Always roll the canvas instead of folding.
A
WARNING
The vessel does not have ground fault
or galvanic corrosion protection. To
prevent possible shock, drowning or
galvanic corrosion, do not use the
battery charger when the vessel is in the
water.
NOTICE: DO NOT paint an
anode, its fasteners or its
mounting surface. Painting will
reduce the anode’s corrosion
protection capabilities. Make
sure the anode’s contact to its
mounting surface is clean and
secure.
CAUTION
Avoid damage to the canvas. Under no
circumstance are these fabrics to be put
in hot water, run through the hot drying
cycle of an automatic dryer or steam
pressed at a dry cleaner. Fabric should
be line-dried.
