A professional repair is not one using dissimilar metals in a marine
atmosphere.


So, I guess you don't use any zincs on your bronze or stainless steel
propeller shaft?

lol

We are not talking about a propeller shaft. Have you ever seen anyone
using a zinc on the boom?



Good try, but I handily refuted your ignorant statement, "A professional
repair is not one using dissimilar metals in a marine atmosphere."

Is not the ocean part of the marine atmosphere? Is not the nobility of
various metals at the very core of mitigating corrosion, electrolysis and
adverse galvanic action in a marine atmosphere?
