Hey all, I have a parker 23 with a bracket and f250 and keep it in saltwater on west coast. The past 2 times I've pulled the boat the engine anode hasn't burned down. I use all aluminum alloy nodes, on the engine, bracket and trim tabs. The anode on the bracket burns down pretty quick. I noticed the engine and bracket are bonded together by testing continuity so im a bit interested in why then there are 2 different anodes on a bonded system. I would think one or the other would be okay? What if i got rid of the brackst anode? I am not sure why the engine anode is not burning but the anode on the bracket is?
The anode on the bracket is the small rudder zinc which, as you know, is impossible to change when the boat is in the water so I'm thinking of drilling some holes in the side of the bracket and putting in a divers dream anode which is bigger and can be replaced in the water. Has anyone done that?
