I plan on doing 1/2 the loop in 2016 or 2017. I will take my boat from Long Island NY to Florida. I think it's a state law in NY. "When you retire, you move to Florida."
Anyway, my question is about zincs. The trip I am currently planning brings me from salt water into fresh water and back again. I use zincs now. I heard in fresh water people use aluminum vs. zincs. I also heard once zincs hit fresh water they get a film over the top surface and stop working until you scrub off that coating. Does anyone have experience with traveling thru salt water and then fresh water and back again?
