When I was showing a more experienced owner around my recently acquired boat a couple of weeks ago and getting his advice on what maintenance I should be doing he said I should check the engine anode.

But I could not find it.

I contacted the previous owner, and he seemed unsure where it was - and he'd installed the engine in 2008. In fact, he said that maybe there wasn't one on the YM320.

Could any of you give me some advice on where I might find it ? Or even if there needs to be one at all ? And what does it look like ? Then after the lockdown I will go searching.

Many thanks.

The sail drives have them at the bottom but also an internal pencil one in the gearbox. Its held in by a large nut low down on the gearbox casing Don't take this out whilst afloat its a big hole :)
