I live on salt water. If I get a new boat or one that was used in
fresh water, are their any changes that I need to make to it? Is it
true that I am supposed to flush out the drive system after each use
of the boat??

Thanks!!

I would look into the following:

- Yes flush the motor after each use, if the engine has a thermostat


~~ snippity do da ~~

Great advice and very complete.

I just once ran my motor without cowling in sal****er and the
corrosion on it was quiet significant...


Hah - I know somebody who once rinsed his inboard off with salt water.

Heh, heh, heh..... :)
