My new Freedom 225 has a one piece full platform/bracket make of aluminum. Unlike my old Gulfstream with a fiberglass platform mounted on top of an aluminum engine bracket, this one has an aluminum platform, welded to an aluminum engine bracket making it a single unit made of welded aluminum. Since my old Gulfstream had corrosion issues around the engine mounting bolts, I've become more aware of corrosion and want to protect and maintain the new boat's platform/bracket assembly. In fact, I've already found a small spot of tiny corrosion bubbles, about the size of a dime on the underside of the platform. I sanded them down and touched up the spot with the Grady supplied Imron touch up paint. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas as to how to preserve and protect the platform/bracket from corrosion, particularly the underside, ie a wax, anti-corrosive protective sealant or spray?
