Three year old Quintrex Electrolisis Probs

Well thought out OB I think you just made a good case for not bothering with the paint at all, especially below the waterline.

Whether the corrosion was caused by the adhesive or retention of salt is academic for my mate now. He got rid of the telwater and got a Tab.

It all still seems to be coming back to quality of products/materials ,our old original "tinny'1980's was hardly ever put undercover & certainly never washed & dried completely everytime we used it,makes one think!! P.S. Still hate my boat

No good you hate your boat, sell it like my mate did.

My '79 quinny fishabout, which caught a lot of fish yesterday, is never washed, never covered, I call it the slum boat but its still going well. Never been welded. I keep the sand in the bottom so the sinkers sit on top...........So I think you have something there Bombie.
