Hi, just moved the boat over from Cardiff bay. Had aluminium anodes there as a compromise for freshwater mooring and saltwater cruising.
remember when I had a boat years ago in portishead, it had a leak. At first I thought it was my potable water tank because I tasted the water in the bilge and it wasn’t seawater. Turned out I did have a leak and somebody told me afterwards the water in the marina was brackish . I guess there’s a lot of fresh water flows down the river Severn and also rainwater flows into the marina.
anyway, proof is in the pudding, so my question, what anodes do you guys use in portishead marina? Is it salty enough for zinc to work? Thanks
