How many anodes?

[Thepipdoc]

Probably a silly question but I'm asking it anyway! (It's becoming habbit starting my posts this way)
I have a twin engined Sea Ray 270 and she's currently out of the water for some unplanned "maintenance", while I have access it seems obvious to replace the very worn anodes -I can see both legs have 2 horseshoe shaped anodes fitted to each of them and the trim tabs also have 1 each, are there any I have missed? I've scanned the owners handbook for any help but I can't see anything there.

Also it makes sense to take care of the anti foul paint while she's on dry land ...... this is the first boat I've owned so this is all new to me.... do I need to strip off the existing anti foul or do I just paint over what's there?
Thanks in advance.

Presume you're talking Mercruiser? If so, you should be able to find out here...

As a guide my Bravo III has six anodes on the leg.

One on the prop boss
one on each lifting ram (2)
two under the cavitation plate
one at the fore end of the cavitation plate on top

They are all wasted each year and require replacing.

Also check any continuity cables on the outdrive and replace if necessary.
