Could be, but not sure how it would be collecting on just this lug and no where else.

Thank you everyone, I have cleaned this connection up and applied the dielectric grease. It cleaned up real easily. Here is a photo of the oil filter base, you can see what the corrosion flakes are doing to it. I'll keep an eye on this over the season. The boat stays in the water for about 5...

Hello, I noticed that the ground wire mount in my outboard has corrosion on it. It appears to be falling/dripping down onto the oil filter platform and corroding that as well. I looked all around in the outboard and find no other issues, and there is no corrosion on either of the battery...

Thank you everyone, I'll report back with what I decide on!

Freedom 205, 2016 I seem to get clogs in my scupper tubes about 4 times a season. It is a pain to keep these clean and feels like a safety issue. We seem to be getting clogged with dog hair, pine needles, and fishing stuff. Is there any sort of screen or filter I can attach on these to...

Trilux 33 for trim tabs and outboard bracket. Micron Extra for hull. PET-1793 for the transducer. The water by me goes through a shift over the spring to fall - from crazy fast barnacle growth to slime and mussels. I still get some slime towards the end of the year, but nothing that isn't...

@Capt Tom - Thank you for the reply! I'll let you know if I try any of the mentioned solutions. @glacierbaze - What concerns me is that the compartment is carpeted. It takes a while to dry out, even with a damp-rid container in it. If it was just fiberglass I don't think it would matter as...

Capt Tom - Did you end up doing anything to resolve this issue? I am having the same problem.

I did mine too! I was surprised by the steep angle the screws were at, but it makes sense now that I think about it. I had to pull that screwdriver back towards me quite a bit.

Thank you!!

Thank you everyone, I definitely have 2 Phillips screws in those cushions. Used a jewelers screwdriver and felt the screw head and measured the length. I think I will go buy a screwdriver that is either short enough or has a handle I can cut to length. I felt up around back and could feel the...

Thanks Tom, I do have 2 silver grommets at the bottom of the cushion. I'll poke around in there - any idea how far in the screws are, and what size Philips head you used? There isnt much clearance, might have to find a screw driver I can cut for this.

Thanks guys, but no tabs that I can find, and I have tried pulling up on them, wont budge. I'll poke around some more tomorrow. Maybe I need to pull up harder, but am afraid of causing damage.

Hello, I have a 2016 205 Freedom, and would like to remove the aft seat backs. Any ideas on how to get these off?
