How to Replace Zincs or Anodes on Your Outboard: The Simple Step That Could Save Your Motor | BoatUS

Have you replaced the zincs or anodes on your outboard lately? No? You could be putting your motor at risk. Replacing the zincs or anodes on your boat's outboard or sterndrive should be done about once a year. But many boat owners don't know how many anodes their boat has or where they're located.

BoatUS Magazine shows you where to find the anodes or zincs on your sterndrive or outboard and how to replace them. It's an easy job and it will save you a good bit of money doing it yourself.
