SCRATCH REPAIR
Anti-Corrosion Anodes
Your outboard is equipped with one or more
anodes that protect it from galvanic corrosion.
Disintegration of the anode is normal and in-
dicates it is working. Check each anode peri-
odically. Replace anodes smaller than 2/3
their original size. See your Dealer for re-
placements.
Surface scratches on the upper and lower
engine covers can be polished out with buff-
ing compound.
Treat affected areas using these steps:
1)
2)
3)
Sand the affected area with 800-grit sand-
paper.
Wet sand the area with 1200-grit sandpa-
per.
Using a composite material buffing com-
pound, polish the area, closely following
the product directions.
IMPORTANT: Your Dealer has the profes-
sional materials to properly repair scratches.
Do not attempt to paint over marks or
scratches in the composite material. See
your Dealer to repair any deep scratches or
gouges.

HULL FINISH
The condition of your boat’s bottom affects
performance. Marine growth or bottom paint-
ing may reduce speed and fuel efficiency.
Galvanic corrosion destroys underwater met-
al parts and can occur in fresh or salt water;
however, salt, brackish, and polluted waters
will accelerate corrosion.
Metal-based antifouling paint on the boat or
outboard and the use of improperly installed
shore power in the area of your moored boat
will also accelerate corrosion.
For maximum performance, keep the boat’s
running surface clean by rinsing it with fresh
water and wiping it dry. Apply Evinrude anti-
corrosion spray to any surface subject to cor-
rosion, but avoid the anti-corrosion anode(s).
IMPORTANT: NEVER paint the anode, its
fasteners, or its mounting surface. Painting
will reduce its corrosion protection.
OUTBOARD EXTERNAL FINISH
SUBMERGED OUTBOARD
Your outboard’s upper and lower engine cov-
ers use molded-in color technology, provid-
ing a deep, durable gloss with maximum
ultraviolet (sunlight) protection.
The high gloss finish will show polish marks
when viewed closely in certain light condi-
tions. This glossing is NORMAL.
Periodically, wash the entire boat and out-
board with soapy water and apply a coat of
automotive wax. Leave the engine cover in
place when washing the outboard.
If your outboard has been under water, have
it serviced immediately upon recovery. If
immediate service is unavailable, resub-
merge it in fresh water to avoid prolonged ex-
posure to the atmosphere.
After submersion, all boat and engine electri-
cal, fuel, and oiling systems must be inspect-
ed for signs of water intrusion. Your Dealer
should perform this service.
IMPORTANT: When trailering your outboard,
DO NOT cover the engine with canvas—it
will dull the finish of the outboard’s engine
covers.
