I just had the zincs changed on my boat. I have a divers dream but the posts dont line up with a standard large plate. so we always end up having the divers drill the plate to fit the holes. this time they didnt have a drill. so we were creative!
their initial suggestion was to mount on just one post but I was worried that they might pick a post that wasnt bonded (I wasnt sure that all posts were bonded?)
so I had them add two zincs overlapping each other on both posts.
I can see an issue where the gap between the zincs wears and the zincs no longer touch but as there is a zinc on either post at least one should be working?
the question is: will the bonding only work if there is an connection between the posts created by the zinc?
