Got ametal boat got apromblem with electrolisis.can,t pin point the problem any suggestion,s?

Answer 1

The most important thing to do is anodes on your hull!!!

Equally important to getting anodes fitted is to make sure they are wired properly!!

Answer 2

zinc is usually the metal used as a sacrifice.

Answer 3

You need to fit a sacrificial element on the outside of your boat under the water line. It depends what metal your boat is made of to determine what metal you use, it must be inferior to your boat metal in the element table.

Answer 4

Elements of correctness in all the above answers - zinc is for salt water, I think it is different for fresh. You should not use copper based antifouling on aluminium. Do you have any anodes fitted and are they wired up.(more important on wood and grp )

Answer 5

buy some anodes,get the right ones,salt water or fresh
