Featherstream prop zinc anodes all sold

[Tony - Antipole & site admin Ovni model: 395]

Having switched to aluminium anodes, I can dispose of my stock of zinc anodes, which I offer for sale.

Type	Quantity	Price each new	Sale for lot
Brick anodes as used on the hull	2 new and two part worn	£35.00	£40.00
Blister anodes as used on the rudder skeg and blade Safran RMC AN0605	2 new and 4 part worn	£6.90	£8.00
Featherstream prop FSL03 (hole centres 53mm)	2 new and 1 part worn	£35.40	£50.00
Pendant on 3m of plastic covered wire (as used to ward off evil currents when berthed, especially in marinas)	1 new and 1 very slightly worn	Ca. £40	£30.00

Or £100 for the whole lot. Items sold are struck out. They are available for collection from Portsmouth, UK or I can dispatch at cost of carriage.

If I were still using zincs, I would put the worn ones on for a further season at least, but this is, of course, up to you.

Hello Tony
We could use all the anodes except the prop ones, we are fixed 3 blade. We could get to Portsmouth tomorrow (Sunday) if that was convenient?
Give me a call on my mobile to confirm 07450861884

Hi, I see you have an anode that you drop in over the side of the boat. Can you tell me where you make the electrical connection? I have one that never seems to dissolve.

Thanks Richard

I tapped a M5 bolt into a rib in the anchor locker and clamped the eye in the wire using a washer under the head of the bolt. All stainless steel.

Crucially, test with a meter for electrical connection between the anode and the hull. If no good connection, you need to fix that. You may need to abraid the anode to get a reading.

Funny I had one on the bow, and it did work, then I fixed two in the stern and had no action, will go back to the bow. My featherstream anode is worn out in 5 months , which means I have to change it in the water.
