Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has switched from zinc anodes to aluminum anodes on the prop shaft in salt water. My reading so far indicates that aluminum anodes should last about half again as long as zincs and protect just as well or better than zinc anodes, with no apparent disadvantages. I don't know if there is a significant cost difference. Can anyone shed light on this?
Thanks,
Frank
