I am located in Southern California, and my dive service used to leave zincs on the boat but now the marina will not allow it. The only parts that I can tell are pink seem to be the bolts. Hopefully I can get away with just replacing those when I hual out next and I did use tinned #8 to replace the junk that was there. Does anyone use a brush around the prop shaft to help bond it?
