[PSUBS-MAILIST] re-wiring trolling motors?

[Alec Smyth <Asmyth@changepoint.com>]

Herve,

May I ask you to elaborate on that tip about galvanic protection of the
shaft? I just put a sacrificial anode near it, but didn't rewire anything.

thanks,

-Alec Smyth

Hi Pat,
Thanks for the link.
I first used Minn Kota Trolling motors for my subs, I am using now Motor
Guide, more powerfull and more reliable, pressure compensated installed,
...........and low cost, though all trolling motors even the sea water
models must be "rewired" since the shaft is rarely galvanic corrosion
protected due to poor continuity between the cathode and the body.
