I just couldn't figure out a good place to mount the contactor, no place under the seat like I have seen. Didn't like the idea of putting it in the rear storage, it gets drowned quite often. Then as I was looking at it, I saw this void where the factory snorkle was. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it. 5 minutes later there it was. The tank cover and the seat almost touch it, but don't, worked out better than I could have dreamed. As you can tell I was worried where to put it, and am happy I found a place I like.

Nice!
Smear some silicone grease on the terminals and studs and nuts to prevent corrosion.
Here's the product I use for all corrosion problems. Have been using this since 1993, my outboard motor looks brand new under the cover.
I spray it on everything I want protection on. What sold me was in 1992 I went to a boat show and saw this 13" color tv turned on under water in a large tank. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Talked to the guys there, took some home and have been using it since. It's a little pricy, but you get what you pay for, do you want the best protection you can get?
I have found it for $16 to $18 last time I had to buy some, depending on where you get it. Might find a better price on line, haven't looked yet.

Where can I buy some around Gainesville?
By a strange coincidence, a buddy of mine just called- he is in Crystal River at the West Marine and wanted to know if I needed anything for my boat. He has the Corrosion Block in his truck, and is stopping by tonight with it! It pays to have good friends!
West Marine has it, but the price is a little high. Homosasa Marine just a few miles south have it cheaper, $2. Not worth the drive, but when I pass through there I stop.
