However, after reading about going from salt to fresh water the main thing I’m seeing is changing the anodes to magnesium from zinc or aluminum. Have you found any other obvious areas of concern that would keep the boat off the water? In other words, not cosmetic issues or minor things, but something similar to the steering. My boat is an inboard outboard so it probably has more items that have been exposed to salt. Thanks in advance for your help
