I am trying to find the correct size of anode for my 2008 Hunter 33 sailboat. Does anyone know the correct size I need? Thank you.

My SWAG is that given size of your boat it is 1". As suggested, just measure it from inside the boat to really know,

Sorry: do you mean what size of zinc to clamp to your prop shaft? (Or do you mean a protective anode for the engine, or do you have a sail drive, or something else?) Our 2004 H306 has a 1" shaft (agreeing with FastOlson's guess above), but again, it's just a guess as to your prop shaft size.

Yes, I do mean the zinc anode to clamp to my prop shaft. I tried a 1 inch and it was a tad too small.

That was my guess. Marlow-Hunter is doing all sail drives now, but in 2008 I think they were all conventional direct drive. So assuming you've done this before (so you know there's a bit of a crank-down factor to get the zinc to seat on the shaft), I'd guess it's 1 1/4". I'll also assume you're asking because your boat isn't very close by, otherwise you'd probably look in your manual.
