Instead of covering the connections with silicon, have any of you guys used "Corrosion X"?

If so, how well does it work for protecting electrical connections?

My boat had a trolling motor pulg-in connector but I started having trouble after getting a larger TM. The mechanic at D H P Enterprise checked my new TM and said it was fine. He told me that I should hard wire the TM to keep from having "connection" problems. I found that my TM wire had another connection just under the front deck of the boat.

Wire size.......I think you need # 10 wire [or maybe # 8....which is next size larger].
