Has anyone modified these plugs to accept a standard american Zinc - price approximately $4 compared to Yanmars $30 price.
I plan to make new plugs to accept standard zincs.
 
If you have a 2010 or newer R-29 you should be able to just unscrew the old zinc out and replace with this. http://www.boatzincs.com/yan120650-13420-ZINC.html

I always have 6 to 8 of these on board. I check my engine zincs while at anchor on a Sunday morning, When they are at 50% I just screw in a new one.
