electrics & saltwater

[Hombre]

Hi All, I know this is not the technical forum but i wanted to go direct to you guys who are into the fast electrics. I have decided to build electric power boats instead of nitro due to my accessability of usage. I live right on sydney, harbour and will mostly be using my boats on the shore line of the harbour, but i am wondering what would the best advice be to protect the electricals from saltwater. eg: the boat will be a aeromarine cyclone cat.

PS: good luck to all you guys who are heading of to all those awsome races.

One simple answer,

Corrosion Block.

It was designed for electronics used in salt water.

Me too. Love that stuff. It can save a reciever when you don't have time to dry it for the 2 days you should.
