[QUOTE="St.Clair Flatsrat, post: 497054, member: 21315"] I believe that the pitting was caused by electrolysis. Aluminum should never come in contact with other metals. I made the mistake of placing my first jon boat on top of my dog kennel with out sitting on 2X4’s. The galvanized kennel posts on the kennel caused the Jon boat gunnel rails to pit. Fortunately I caught it before holes would have developed. You might want to research this online. Metallurgy. [/QUOTE]
