Trying to do some maintenance in my motor and noticed that the bar anode is fairly eaten up. Thought I’d replace it as well as the trim tab anode. Question. Boat is in saltwater 90% of the time, occasionally seeing fresh or brackish. Zinc or aluminum?
All the work boats I have been around use zinc. I have always used zinc on large and smaller ones as well as outboards. Now, all that being said, I never knew they made any “zincs” out of aluminum.

Thank y’all, zinc it is.
