Shaft anode size?

[SpottyDog5]

Anyone just happen to know, what the size he shaft anodes are on a Sealine F43 ?
They are the ballistic shaped ones on the ends after the props, not clamp on type.
Cheers in anticipation.

Measure the shaft diameter and you'll get your answer ...

HINT: Diameter at gearbox end is probably the same as in the end where the propellor is..

Do you mean the prop nut anode. The type that screw into the prop nut roght on the end?

Not a reliable way to do it. My shaft is 40mm, nut anode is 35mm. Caught me out when i fitted the first anode.

Nope...sorry to be pedantic .... a shaft anode is exactly what is says on the tin...

..... sized on prop shaft diameter and carry more sacrificial metal (weight)... than a

Propellor nut anode which is different....

Sized on Propellor fastening nut size and may also differ in fastening methodology with fastening bolts into the shaft / propellor nut...

Not to worry and no problem with anyone's description in reality... just the language issue ... as a Norwegian I tend to be a bit more specific in how I express myself ... having been burnt in the past by choosing the wrong word/phrases in some situations ...(others felt awkward ... I did not)... ...ignorance is bliss ..

Point taken Alf, and a fair one at that. You've assumed the OP meant what he said, i'd assumed he meant what he really needed lol (lucky mistake on my part).
