I have a contact for the anodes, the fellow is close to doing a order. He says he will give a small discount to club members, better if we get to him soon. when you call make sure you tell them you are from the Donzi Club. They are located in New Jersey and will have to mail stuff off.

Please decide quickly if you want any, he will base his discount to members on quanity!

I have a stupid question...

I noticed after the Dora trip that I have a ton of little white *electrolysis* spec's on the drive. They relatively easily wipe off. Dora is a freshwater arena, and the boat was in the water overnight for only 2 nights. Do I need to alternate between zinc and magnesium anodes, when I change venue's from fresh to salt weekend usage?

J :cool:

Jim most everyone that did the 1000 Island run also noticed the same thing. Fresh water is not so fresh anymore, electrolisis is getting worse by the year, I have a couple of friends with F/W marinas they are noticing the change. It may come that we Salt guys can start crabbing about not buying a Fresh Water boats. LOL!

Can you educate me on the difference/usage/ benefits between zinc and magnesium anodes. I have a TRS drive. Can I get the proper anodes from that guy?

Thanks!

I'll take one bar anode and one prop ring for my AQ200.
The Boater's World part # for the zinc prop rings I recently bought is 327251856, "Volvo Penta Sterndrive Ring V16".

Thanks, Matty, let me know who to pay!

Just spoke to Gary again. So I don't screw things up being in the middle, call or email and order direct just mention Donzi so he keeps you on the seperate list. He will keep a list and discount accordingly.

Scott the Mag ones are for fresh water, you need to stick with Zinc.
I plan on getting the Mag ones for my trips to fresh water, I had to touch up my drive after the last fresh water sorti. They can crab about salt and we can crab about burn.

NOT! I did my thing got it setup for you guys, Matty you know that took awhile and a bunch of calls, I spoke with him and it is much easier to let him keep a running tab and order when he has to. I get to buried during the day can't take responsibility.

P.S. Matty

Flyers are looking good, up 3 games to 1 with Esch playing well. Bye-bye Devils!

Now, if only the Wings would wake their asses up and start playing HOCKEY!

The Leafs knockin' out the Sens...what's up with that?
