Sure is. Note that a LOT of zinc makes a bigger battery, so 4 zincs might go 
quicker than 2. As long as the fish gets eaten before the shaft zincs it should 
be good.

I hang a zinc over the side that connects via alligator clip to the negative 
battery terminal.  I go through two zinc fishes a year.  This tells me it must 
be doing something.

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
