Throughout my boating "career", I have also used ZINC for protecting prop and shaft. I sail the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay where the further north you go, the more brackish the water becomes. In looking to order anodes through Defender, I noticed their comment about ALUMINUM being longer lasting in salt and brackish waters [than ZINC].
I'd like to get both max protection AND max life out of my anodes. For those who sail in salty or brackish waters, which metal are you all using, and what's been the longevity? Fair Winds, Pete W. Siren Song '91 C&C30-2 Deltaville, Va.
