My shaft anode is disappearing too fast. Does anyone have advice on what to look for when checking the earthing arrangements?

the good news is that it is working - what makes you think it's going to fast?

If it is close to a copper alloy propeller it is going to disappear pretty quickly. Are you sure you actually need it any way?

If it's disappearing, it shows it's doing it's job.
A rough guide is that the anode be sized so it lasts a season. That means it should end up as 50% of its size.
If it is being used more quickly, is it too small? Are there other anodes which are not doing their job? Are there other sufficient anodes?
The people at MG Duff are a great help. Look at their site - http://www.mgduff.co.uk/
