I had a few jobs to get done on my boat replace the busted u bolt and fit different end caps to my bow roller to centralise the bow of the boat to the mule post. As I was walking around the boat I noticed that the trim tab anode on the lower leg had gone, obviously came loose and fell off not sure where or when.
I normally get my Yamaha spares from port Phillip boating centre unfortunately nil stock till the new year.
I revert to eBay and here is my question zinc or aluminium i did a bit of research and if you believe what you read aluminium is the go so has any body had any personal experience of the two types.

Re: Anodes
I would ring Yamaha and get there recommendation,If your boat is still in its warranty period it may effect any warranty decisions.

Re: Anodes
Zinc and aluminum can both be used for salt water. Zinc is longer lasting aluminum is cheaper.
Get the same material as the other anodes on your motor.
