Boat problem
I live in Illinois on a small lake on a channel. I have a two horse old pontoon and mechanic said the pontoons have electrolysis. At first i thought it was zebra muscles a closer look showed little holes in the pontoon. I figure this problem is more common down your way with big lakes and marinas.
Is there a tool to measure water for electcity to see where it gets stronger to find the problem? Local mechanic in area said only boats in my channel have the problem

What he said all grounds should make their way to the neg battery post and the negative post grounded to engine block on your outboard. No grounds to the boat.Originally Posted by Quackrstackr

Does the boat stay in the water at a dock with electricity? If so it’s probably an electrical problem at the dock or with an onboard charger.
