[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 323325, member: 6937"] Thanks, bigwave! Good idea about the zinc anodes on the trailer frame. I actually had one on my old trailer, but I don't think it worked properly, since the trailer was galvanized, having zinc-on-zinc didn't have much effect. But zinc on aluminum probably would make a big difference, and extend the trailer's life. You're correct about springs, around saltwater, if you can get 2-3 years out of a set, that's about all you can hope for. I thoroughly rinse my trailers after use in saltwater, but you can see from the photos it doesn't seem to help very much. [/QUOTE]
