It won't corrode so bad if you dielectric grease the connection and never unplug it lol. It's the exposure to air and corrosive materials that gets you!

wedge a pool noodle behind it. And dielectric grease, corrosionX or consistent spraying with wd40 will work

Thanks for all the replies! As it turns out, a Gatorade bottle worked perfectly.

I love a low tech solution.

X2 Dielectric Grease generously applied every use on all fittings keeps my ff running. Buy the automotive sized tube online for a fraction of the cost of the small tubes sold in marine stores.
