 Topic: zink anode hullPosted: 23 May 2014 at 20:18 |
|
On my H400 from 2010 there is an anode just on the port side of the engine. I am not able to get a new one like this.
It is connected to grounding cable on the inside (Thruhullbolts) I have talked to the Norwegian dealer, but they have not even heard about this anode.
Did anyone know where to buy this one?  |

I don't think it right to have a grounding plate made of zink. i think its better to have it made of copper or brons Chek if its really an anode i think its a Grounding plate, i have one made off brons.

Alidal,
The anode looks like one available on the Hanse Shop website , email hanse@boatoon.com They call it an "anode type 15". I think you will need to advise your boat model to get the correct size.

Idelfix: Yes it is an anode.
Wayne`s World: It is the one on the Hanse Shop! But now the boat is on the water again. Have not checked the other end of the cable connected to the anode.... I agree with Idelfix; it should not be made of zinc

Alidal,
The anode shown on the Hanse Shop website looks like a new version of the "anode" in your photo. The website shows this item as being available for the Hanse 400. The Hanse shop lists a phone number on their website so maybe a quick call to them may sort the issue out.

Hi,
It is a Vetus hull anode. If you measure the distance between the hole centres you will be able to buy it from an online or local chandler. It is definitely a hull anode and not a grounding plate. Kind regards Phil

Thanks Phil
What is the purpose of this anode? I think we are more familiar with anodes attached to saildrives and props but on the hull? Always something more to learn! Steve |

Hi Steve,
They change what they do fairly regularly in terms of anodes and cathodic protection. Despite being science it appears to be a dark art. I believe the latest round of hull anodes are bonded to the keel plate and rudder stock to offer protection for them. Kind regards Phil
