    A Dynaplate 06:08 is used on wooden/fibreglass boats to give a marine HF radio a good "ground" connection to the water and give the antenna/tuner an RF counterpoise. A Dynaplate is made from sintered bronze and is generally connected via a wide copper strap to the radio equipment as RF travels along the surface of a conductor. I lost count of how many I installed on non-metallic hulled boats over the years :-)

      The Holy Bible says that you are a sinner, and without Jesus Christ, you will die in your sins and spend eternity burning in Hell. There is no sin that can enter Heaven. You must have your sins washed in the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; he shed his blood for you on the cross of Calvary. Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven - you must turn to him, trust him, believe on him and him alone for the salvation of your soul.
      "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law." - Romans 3:23-28 KJV

    Hey peter, the Dynaplate is probably a SACRIFICIAL ANODE. It prevents saltwater from eating your metals, as metal in the sea is basically just making a very expensive battery. The sacrificial anode is made of metals more reactive than things like steel and aluminium, so it gets consumed, protecting your shaft, screw, fixtures .etc
    Be sure yours is still good, and don't go into saltwater without it :D

Good luck!

      Boating stores are a rip off. Sure they collect most everything you may need in one place, but they put a 50 to 200 percent store tax on everything. Actually most things can be found in Lowes or Home Depot. It might not say "Marine" on the package but there are a lot of overlap. Stainless is stainless, bronze is bronze and a bit of common sense will help figure out what is suitable.

      That is not really how things work. You use zinc or aluminum anodes to protect the submerged metal of your boat. Some boats use bronze or copper grounding plates to create a ground in contact with the ocean. It is unclear if this is a good idea but some boats do it, especially boats with RF equipment like SSB or loran. If you look up dynaplate you will see it is made of sintered bronze and is for grounding purposes, not anodic protection.

Zinc anodes are the protection you need for your boat's metallic parts (shafts, props, rudders, etc.). Referred to as sacrificial anodes, these anodes are placed over and connected to the metallic parts of your boat that need protection from electrolysis-caused corrosion."

      Not at all. They just take tons of money to fix if they were not properly maintained over the years. If you actually do the maintenance when it’s supposed to be done, it’s not nearly as much. Also, he wasted a lot of money downgrading the engine. That old Volvo is still fully supported with factory parts and is still one of the most common engines in that size of boat, and is far simpler and more reliable. I’m a Cummins fan, but their boat engines just aren’t reliable. So he spent probably $30,000-50,000 to downgrade to a far less reliable engine when the old one could have been freshened up for about $5000 and would have been good for another 40 years. That Cummins is supposed to have the computer ($10,000) replaced every 7-10 years no matter how many hours it has, and most don’t make it 5 years.

      It’s pretty simple, he didn’t do nearly enough research before he bought the boat. 70% of his costs were downgrading to a less reliable engine from one of the best engines made for that size of boat. I’m pretty sure the marina knew he was clueless and offered him a lowball price on it. The old Volvo is still fully supported with factory parts. And 20% of the cost was fixing the previous owner’s lack of maintenance. If he had the boat surveyed before buying, he would have known what needed fixing and could have gotten a better price, or just bought a boat in better shape. The other 10% is just what it takes to make it your own. Boats really aren’t that expensive to maintain, if you actually do it on time and don’t wait for stuff to break. When my uncle bought his sportfisher, he looked at about a dozen boats, I did basic once overs on them and that cut the list down to 3 boats. He paid for surveys on them and picked the one in the best shape. They were all 40+ years old and over $400,000. The cheapest one was actually the best maintained with zero problems and nothing that needed to be done. One of his top 3, the owner cut the price down more than enough to cover repairs, but my uncle wanted to hit a fishing tournament and it wouldn’t have been ready in time. It’s easy to scam people when it comes to boats, because most people are clueless about what you can’t just see.
      FYI, I’ve made money on most boats I’ve owned, and made sure they were in perfect shape before I sold them. Surveyors know that if I’m selling one, it is in perfect order and will tell the buyer that.

    A common problem with fuel tanks is that there is all kinds of fungal growth in them. Definitely want to clean the tanks and have a way to inspect it (and clean if needed) from time to time. The fungal growth can cause problems by clogging the fuel filter and stalling the engine. Often this happens the first time you get into rough water after buying a boat.
