Thinking of taking my aluminum boat and 2004 Johnson 4-stroke to the coast for a week, hoping to get a place with a dock so I can leave my boat tied up and not put it back o the trailer every day. I know I flush it very well after every salt/brackish water day trip so I'm wondering if a week in the salt water is a bad idea or if I should do certain things during or after...??

Re: Leaving boat in salt water for a week?

should be fine. think of all the people who leave their boat permanently in salt marinas. just be sure when you take it out that you scrub and wash the bottom real good if there is any slime, you dont want that to build up, and flush the motor. you shuld be good to go
