Hi all, does anyone have experieces installing the zincs on a steel sail yacht of 32 feet? I would like to understand how much zincs and the position where to set the zincs. At the moment I have only two zinc near the propeller shaft, but the boat is now sailing in sweet water but I want to move in the med. Does anyone has an idea?
