Bronze Thru Hulls Causes Saildrive Corrosion?
I’ve reached out to a “corrosion” guy but in the meantime I’m trying to get some clarification on what I was told today.

I was told that installing Groco bronze thru hulls on a fiberglass catamaran would lead to failed sail drives due to corrosion.

I’ve been under the belief that Groco are a very good thru hull to use. Am I wrong?
