Query about raising outboard 6" on transom

[iamspartacus]

OK, The zinc anode is clean and bare? You could add more anodes. There are ones that screw onto transom bolts, and other universal ones as well.

Alternatively, maybe there is stray current in the water? Do you moor in a marina with boats with shore power? Do you have shore power? Leakage from shore power can cause serious galvanic corrosion.

Yes I was thinking about attaching some more anodes. I do try and keep it clean but could probably do a better job and also replace more often.
