It is a hugely wasted effort attached to random parts of the boat. If it is 
connected to the boat’s grounding system it will certainly work and save the 
underwater zincs. You still need a galvanic isolator, even 50 zincs can only do 
so much to solve everyone else’s issues.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Stus-List Hanging Zinc

Listers,

Every once in a while, I come across a boat with a submerged zinc hanging from 
a wire off the stern of a boat. Some people swear by them and others think it’s 
a wasted effort.

What does the group think? Is it worthwhile to add (especially when on shore 
power) and, if so, where do you connect it on the boat?

All the best,

Edd
