Zinc on shaft by the wheel

[dgetswet]

Does anyone know what size zinc goes on the shaft by the prop?
I have not taken the prop off yet. This will be my first time removing the prop. Any suggestions?

Mine is 1 1/2”, Yanmar and ZF tranny.
Not sure if they are all the same...

Should be a camp c7 collar zinc. I get mine from boatzincs.com 1-1/2”

Any suggestions?

Since you asked. Three things:

1. Make sure the new zinc doesn't restrict water flow through the cutlass bearing - i.e., leave adequate space between the zinc and the cutlass bearing.

2. Clean the shaft to bright metal where the zinc will mount.

3. Use a good puller on the prop - not a slide hammer - and judiciously apply heat if necessary.

Thanks for the sound advice.
