Anode - does anyone else have one on their trailer?

Post by 66Avion18 »

Hello all and Happy New Year. My Sportsman has what I believe is an anode at the front left (when facing the trailer). It's quite degraded as you can see in the image. Also, it appears to have a wire connected to it that goes into the trailer. It runs within the wall so I have been unable to trace it. Does anyone else have one on their trailer? I've never seen one and cannot find a source to replace the one that I have on my trailer.

Boat part shops or marinas have anodes in all sizes and shapes.

Thanks. I did check out a boat shop but the ones they had for sale were quite large and not remotely resembling the one that is currently on the Avion. Also, are these quite common on Avion or Airstream trailers?

Update: After visiting a few marine shops I found one in the same shape and size. The one I bought is a clam shell shape so I can actually split in two and only use half. Problem solved.
