ADVICE - RECOMMENDATION
- When in dry dock check the anode on the propeller shaft line.
- See "Motorisation" chapter.
- When the boat is stored at a dry dock, the corrosion protection is not as effective due to
oxidation of the anodes: even the new anodes oxidize the surface. Before returning the
boat into the water, clean the anodes.
- Cleaning anodes: Use sandpaper.
Do not use metal brushes or steel tools to clean the boat, it may damage the galvanic
protection.
- Replacing the anodes: The anodes are fastened with screws and nuts. First, remove the
screws and nuts that hold the anode, then clean the contact surface. Press the new anode
to obtain a good electrical contact.
