Bonding system on Catalina yachts?

We don't have an electrical bonding system on our Catalina yachts, right? They don't work well in marinas, and we don't need them with our non-metallic thru-hulls, right? My zincs are only lasting 3 months, and a marine electrician wants to charge $255 to check out my bonding system. He's trying to rip me off, I think. All I need is a galvanic check?

Seems like a lot of money to check something which doesn't exist.:cool:

If you are normally plugged into shore power, that is likely the problem and first thing you can check yourself. A galvanic isolator would fix the problem if that's your problem.
