I'm sure a bit of judicious anti corrosion paint or galvanisation
would sort that out. Or perhaps put baffles up on ryde pier so
there's less spray.

That won't work on aluminium. I suggest you learn some chemistry and
metallurgy.

Well perhaps I would if I had time to do a 3 year degree in it. Obviously
you're an expert so fill us in on why you can't and how Audi and Jag manage
it with their aluminium bodied cars.
