[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 519953, member: 15636"] At one marina, everyone’s zincs would rot away in weeks! So we put a diver in the water around the docks at that marina - unfortunately [B]well[/B] [B]before ANYONE[/B] really knew anything about ‘stray’ electricity in saltwater … and they immediately convulsed and went limp in minutes. Thank God, my older brother was present and he had been scuba certified at 11 years old (a Jacques Cousteau ‘wannabe’) said,[I] “Hey, maybe we should tie a line to his non-main arm and make sure that when we tug once, he tugs back twice. I had that in my certification.”[/I] … the diver never tugged once! Yes, we saved him … [B]Nowadays[/B] we drop a silver/silver chloride element off a DVM into the water 1st, to read the electrical potential. [/QUOTE]
