Corrosion Protection
If you moor your Pro-Line in salt water for extended periods make sure to check the transom
mounted anti-corrosion anode often for operation. Check the electrical connections (green wire) on
all metallic fittings with anode for conductivity with a ohm meter. Make sure the anode surface is
exposed and not caked with corrosion and scale. If the anode is more than 50% eroded renew it.
Your motor / drive unit has a sacrificial anode made of zinc to mitigate the effects of corrosion
causing, electrolysis . Maintain this anode in accordance with the maintenance schedule in your
engine manual.
