the anode had some corrosion but by no means badly. I am going to put on 2 this
year. I did question that somehow I got a salt water anode instead of fresh. We
have had some problems with the electrical inverter as well this year- seems to
have stopped working- I did wonder if the unused AC power from the shore power
could have been the cause- but I am not an electrician so may be WAY off

Joanne,
Was there any anode (zinc) left? On the Chesapeake I go through several in a
season. You might consider putting on 2 or having someone dive and check
during the season.

Hello all
I have been watching the list for a while but never contributed until now.
Couple years ago we bought a 1980 C&C 30 MKI from the original owner. wonderful
wonderful boat! This was our first boat and things have been a bit daunting at
times- but I cant tell you how much the list helps.
When we pulled her this year we had some serious prop corrosion issues. We are
still trying to assess the cause (anode was replaced last spring but perhaps I
didn't get good contact)but regardless we will need to replace the prop. It is
a 15 inch radius 2 blade fixed but the erosion is such that I cannot read the
pitch- how do I figure this out?
Any suggestions as to suppliers as well?- we will likely stick with the 2 blade
fixed. has any one had experience with the urethane perfect pitch props?
Thanks in advance
