RE: Diver installed Zincs

DO, apology accepted. We moved the ship to a slip on a fresh water slip on a river in Louisiana shortly after this installation and I guess I felt for a while that the change in salinity minimized the material loss. My bad. We did scrape the running gear and rudders while out of the water. Surveyor says I can get at least another year out of the ablative bottom paint- so I plan on being out of the water again on a year. It appears the same bottom paint was used on the hull and running gear. Seems I have read that this should not be?
