Reasons to Flush Your Outboard Motor After Use in Freshwater

As boating enthusiasts, we all know the importance of regular maintenance for our watercrafts, especially flushing the outboard motor after use in freshwater. This is where Seamule's Flushmaster comes in, making the process quick and easy with just the push of a button. Let’s dive into the reasons why flushing your outboard motor after use in freshwater is essential for the longevity and performance of your boat.

After a day out on the lake or river, your outboard motor may have accumulated brackish or dirty water. This can be harmful to the motor as it can cause corrosion and buildup of debris, which can affect its functionality. 

Freshwater contains fewer minerals and pollutants compared to saltwater, making it less corrosive. However, even freshwater can cause some level of corrosion over time. This is especially important for those who frequently use their boat in both salt and freshwater, as salt water can accelerate the corrosion process.

One of the major benefits of using Seamule's Flushmaster is its ability to remove invasive clams or mussels from the motor's cooling system. These aquatic creatures can attach themselves to the motor and cause blockages, leading to overheating and potential damage. By flushing the motor with fresh water, you are effectively removing any of these unwanted guests, ensuring that your motor runs smoothly and efficiently.

By removing any harmful substances and preventing corrosion, you are ensuring that your motor stays in top condition for years to come. This means fewer maintenance costs and more time out on the water enjoying your boat.

Flushing your outboard motor after use in freshwater is a simple yet crucial step in maintaining its performance and protecting your investment. Seamule's Flushmaster makes this task quick and easy with its marine-grade portable device and 3 easy steps. Shop online  for yours today!
