Keel Zincs To Use

[carboman]

I have a 1987 H23 and am wondering what people use for the keel zincs.

Hi, I mounted a zinc to each side of the keel, more or less centered. They are shaped like half a tear drop, with two mounting holes. I drilled and tapped the keel, then bolted on with 1/4 inch SS bolts. I think they help quite a bit, but I still get some rusting. I wire brush them clean every spring, they have almost half disappeared in 20 years of fresh water, about 5 months per year in the water.

I will try to get some pictures this weekend if weather holds.
