Makes sense now (I think). Motor is clamped and bolted to the steel frame therfore the steel frame becomes a common earth, I believe I need to mount the toons insulated (nylon bushes) so that alloy & steel are not touching and then earth strap the frame to the toons - sounds conflicting but thats the method a few people are telling me. The other way is to insulated the motor which is nigh impossible because the trim & rudder angle gauge require a frame earth. I have read up on electrolysis but confusion still reighs.
