Greetings all,

Can't find a replacement zinc for the transom mounted fuel tank ground. I understand another option is to eliminate the transom zinc ground and ground the tank to the negative post on the battery? Any comments or suggestions from those that have been through this?

Thx,
Mike

That disc for the transom is not ZINC, it is cindered (sp) bronze. You can do the same thing with a devise called a wonder bar for radio grounding on bigger vessel's. Made from the same material. Keep watching E-bay as every now and then I see those disc's up for auction.
