Simply re-installing and connecting your battery at the start of the boating season doesn't always mean your boat's electrical system is ready to go.

Or, have you added a new sound system to your boat? Some LED lighting? New switches for all that? Maybe an additional battery for a trolling motor?
<p>How often have you looked behind or under the instrument panel, electrical distribution panel or into the engine compartment to check all electrical connections for solid connections, loose wires or corroded connectors? When you removed the battery for the off-season, did you see any white, powdery deposits on the battery terminals?
<p>Corrosion due to moisture and condensation over the off-season, in the bilge and salt water spray or exposure can eventually lead to failure and possibly even fire. According to studies over 50 percent of boat fires are caused by wiring problems. Or, you don't want to get stranded without your electrical power being there when you need it.
<p>It's not difficult to help protect your connections when you winterize or get ready for the new boating season. Some of that protection comes in a can. <p>Ducky Electro-Seal is a spray-on clear protective rubber film that conforms to all surfaces leaving a tight bond that is flexible with elongation up to 500% to accommodate natural movement of connected surfaces which helps to eliminate loosening of connections due to vibration or change in temperature. <p><img SRC="http://www.iboats.com/mall_marketing/newsletter/feb16/images/art2-5.jpg" border="0" />
<p>Ducky Electro-Seal is ideal for use as a surface applied electric insulator. One spray pass will leave a clear coat about a one mil thick (0.001"), additional layers can be added. (4 mil will withstand 300 volts) Ducky Electro- Seal is also MerCruiser approved passing their vigorous 500 hour salt water environment test with flying colors. <p>Electro-Seal can be used on circuit boards, ignition wiring, lighting connections, electrical panels, battery terminals, general waterproofing and even nuts and bolts you don't want to rust. Electro-Seal is clear when dry, allowing for easy, periodic inspection of all wires as well as not having to worry about overspray ruining any aesthetics. Electro-Seal is inert to salt, water, alkaline, pollutants and some petroleum products. Electro-Seal can be removed with mineral spirits or peeled off with your fingers. <p><img SRC="http://www.iboats.com/mall_marketing/newsletter/feb16/images/art2-6.jpg" border="0" />
<p>Electro-Seal can also be used on electrical connections on your car, SUV, truck, motorcycle, ATV, yard equipment, PWC, snowmobile or other vehicles as well. <p>Electro-Seal is for use in covered compartments, below deck or in the engine compartments. It is not intended for use when exposed to direct sunlight. Direct sun will dry it out, shorten its useful life and make it ineffective. Electro-Seal will usually last up to three years or longer.
