Diameter of strut zinc

Those of you who use a strut zinc, what is the Diameter? Recently bought #1711 and need to replace the zinc. 
Thank you!

my strut zinc (first installed this Feb) is a 2" with the screw thru the center.  33 years - no zinc.

Steve - you should join us at the Catalina Rendezvous at Roche Harbor May 4-7.  PM me and I'll hook you up with the organizer.   I'm the only 36 but lots of 34's and 42's (33 boats total).

Thanks for everyone's comments. We just purchased hull 1711 and will have the vessel recomissioned in about two weeks in Puget Sound. Les, thanks for the invite. Once we get the vessel in the water we will contact you for information.

I was once told that the stern rail and propeller shaft are the same diameter. 1 inch sounds about right.

You can use either an R-2 or R-3 anode on your strut. Both use the same diameter machine screw. The R-2 is 2 3/4" in diameter and the R-3 is 3 13/16" in diameter.

Clean bottoms are FastBottoms!
