A lot of people (also socalled experts) say that the dezincification can be avoided by connecting the seacocks to an anode!
This however is bull**** sorry bull excrements !
The problem is that the zinc "anode" is already within the brass seacock and is eaten away!

Also discussed in the MAIB report. Bonding of seacocks was a contributory factor in the near-sinking.
Only Just read this thread and know very little about this subject I wonder whether bonding the seacocks to magnesium anodes(changing from ordinary zinc ) would make any difference On boat that already have their seacocks bonded ?
What prompts me to ask this is a an issue with an outboard in freshwater where I was advised to switch to a magnesium anode
