I bought a 1998 Hunter 340 a year ago. I'm swapping out the engine & doing a minor refit. One of my concerns is the stainless steel bolts on the strut & stern tube. Normally I wouldn't put stainless below the water line, but some builders do to save cost. Can anyone tell me if a H340 of this vintage normally came with stainless bolts? Have these installations run into problems with crevice corrosion (or any other type of corrosion)?
The original owner of 19 years generally did the right things & did them right. The next owner (of 6 months) had little knowledge, but that didn't stop him from messing around with things he shouldn't have. So I don't know if these are original or recent.
