Anode working?

[Euphonyx]

So can someone tell me how to use a multi meter to find out if my hull anode is doing its job? Many thanks!

Just use the connectivity setting to test connectivity between the anode and whatever it is protecting. A typical multimeter will emit a beep if there is low resistance connectivity. If there is any paint, fouling, corrosion you need to get through it for the test.

What I do is test the multimeter is getting connectivity first by putting both probes on the anode then both on the keel, for example, then test the connectivity between the two.
