You have to keep in mind zinc is for salty waters, for fresh water you need to use magnesium or at least cast aluminum.

Yours may have a different shaft size so check. They are available at any chandlery. If you have to replace the prop, this might be the time to upgrade to a folder. I recently replaced mine with a 2 blade Flexofold. Better speed under sail in light air, improved reverse thrust. Not cheap, but if you have to replace anyway, you're partway there anyway. My shaft is 7/8" with an SAE standard taper for the prop. sam :-) C&C 26 Liquorice Ghost Lake Alberta From: Dan via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 2014 8:17 AM To: CnC-List@cnc-list.com <mailto:CnC-List@cnc-list.com> Reply To: Dan Subject: Stus-List C&C 26 Prop & Zinc Diver who cleaned the hull of my C&C says I need to change out the zinc and replace the prop. The prop had buildup and while clean now has the residue that will enhance further growth. The since is just normal wear and need replacing. Anyone have any idea where to find both the prop and zinc? Merry Christmas Everyone!! Dan
