I am installing radio equipment on an aluminium boat (Ovni 435)
In order to avoid electrolysis, what is the best way to ground vhf
and ssb transceivers on a aluminium boat?

I have to use a "floating power supply", so neither the positive nor
negative power lead is connected to the hull.
All installation manuals tell me I should ground my equipment
(transceiver and antenna-tuner) with copper-foil to the hull. I think
this would trigger 2 very bad disadvantages:
1. I would ruin my floating power because then I would also connect
the hull to the negative power lead.
2. Copper on aluminium will cause heavy electrolysis

Anybody out there who knows of a practicable solution?

I am no expert on marine radio, but would the hull itself not provde
adequate grounding?
