[Public-List] sealing thru hulls

[Bob Norway]

I think I posted this before, but here it is again. You can get those
'teardrop' zincs from boatfix.com.

Specifically at this web site:

=Search

They are called 'Acorn Nuts' and go for $7.81 each.

Cheers,

Michael.....could you tell me something about your "teardrop zinc". I was
looking for some info a couple of weeks ago about zincs on the A30. 

Is this the zinc that attaches to the threads on the back of the prop ??
Where did you buy it ??...or did you have to buy something else and adapt
it..??
