No those nice chrome caps that cover the indicator cable & dont turn white when you spray them w/ lime-a-way. Go look at an Outerlimits, Nor-tech, or a Cigarette, they come on the boat.

He's talking about the thru hull fitting that screws into the tab for the indicator cable. The plastic ones cost 23 bucks a pair and the stainless one 106 bucks a pair. Mercury makes both. The first time you put lime-away on the transom when your in Florida the plastic ones turn white and look like chit. The manufacters in the previous post use the stainless steel ones and AT uses the plastic. I've ordered some polished stainless blinged up ones to replace mine with from Stainless Marine. They come with a hose to cover the cable from the thru-hull to the tab connection and look really good. The OL at the Miami Show had them on it.

I added this bling! Need I say more?

Have you guys noticed that TSPM is using this pic, in a different way, in their scrolling add here on OSO? Very cool.

Paul, I want that pic for my screen saver!

Why would you use lime-away on your boat?

Mine are white also, the hull cleaner I use(On & Off Hull and Bottom Cleaner) does the same thing. But it does work!

Lime Away??....

To remove that white chalky crap off the chrome on the transom that forms when you leave your boat in that wonderful Florida salt for a couple of days. Didn't you get that chit on there last winter when we went to Key Largo ?
