This is bad for an 06 Model!
You have any idea why this is happening?


My guess would be shore power



In the absence of anything else, I was going to guess stray currents
(which may well be from shore power) from the boat of a boater in a nearby
slip or dock.

Yet another reason to avoid outdrives! :)


Good guess but not in this case. No shore power, nobody nearby with shore
power, no stray currents etc. Volvo-Penta says they had a bonding or
adhesion problem with the paint they used on some recent outdrives. We are
working with them to get it repainted.
