[QUOTE="Go Fish, post: 237400, member: 6062"] I've got 3 boats that I run in the salt, 2 tin and one glass. They all get a good dousing with water after each use and if I make a mess during the trip they may get a soapy bath. While it can't hurt, I think flushing the motor after use in saltwater is not necessary. I never flush my motors and it has never been an issue. I had a 200 HP Johnson on my big boat that was in perfect operating condition when I sold it with over 4000 saltwater hours on it...it had never been flushed after use. Think about it: There are thousands upon thousands of folks that slip or moor their boats in saltwater and they never flush after use. [/QUOTE]
