Zincs at a good price

[Russell]

I hauled my boat this past weekend to clean the hull and unexpectedly had to purchase new zincs. I was shocked at the prices I had to pay at West Marine so I looked around on the internet and ordered in a supply from this place: http://www.boatzincs.com/ The shaft donut is $13.29 and for those who use the BP129 Vetus bowthruster zinc it is $14.58 compared to $35 at marine stores. I did not know there is a specific zinc for Bennett trim tabs so I ordered one pair at $15.52 to see how they will work. They mount on the two bolts that attach the hydraulic cylinder to the tab. Most people drill a hole and mount a small rudder zinc but it is not necessary with these. I found the 5 inch rudder zincs for $12.84 at http://www.deepblueyachtsupply.com

Russ,
Thanks for the information. This will be helpful to others searching around the board.

Yes I always order my zincs from them now. Incredibly fast shipping and it seems as though they have every obscure zinc you can imagine in stock.
