After each use I thoroughly rinse off the outdrive and transom assembly and also run the motor on fresh water for ten minutes.
I have been told that the risers and manifolds, being open to the air, are going to rust anyway but maybe a little slower as a result of my diligence.
After repeatedly losing the salt war on my I/O's down there I am certain that my next FL boat will be an outboard!
