Thanks to David for raising the issue of galvanic isolators. I have to admit, I don't have one on my boat, and I haven't worried about it very much as my zincs are lasting more than 7 months in a salt water environment in a small harbor surrounded by boats that are always plugged in to shore power. As a result, I don't think I have much of a problem going on, if any.
That said, the idea of having an isolator in place would make me feel better. Have any of you tried the following isolator? http://yandina.com/GalvInfo.htm On my last boat, I had one of their battery combiners for about 15 years, and I found it to be (virtually) flawless. When I did had one fail, they replaced it without blinking an eye, and they provide an unlimited warranty. The price is nice as well... Thoughts?
