We have a 1982 Morgan 383 (Ithaki). Does anyone know if this
model came with an electrical bonding system from the factory?
Our boat has a series of green wires tied (poorly) to the
engine, thru-hulls, mast step, etc. However, these wires are
not attached to any external zinc anode. I believe an anode is
needed for the bonding system to work. I think our current
system is worse than nothing because it closes the circuit
between the metal components of the boat and the sea water.
Obviously, my knowledge of things electrical is pretty weak.
Can anyone advise me as to how a good bonding system should be
set up? Is an external anode necessary? Any advice would be
appeciated. Thanks.
