Just aft of my saildrive on my 2008 Bavaria 40 Cruiser there is a bolt protruding from the hull (see photo attached). Does anyone know what this is? Perhaps the attach point for an anode that has been completely eroded? Ideas?
Thanks
PatrickI’d say 99% an anode point… see pic of CaSam below

Many thanks. That’s what I thought.
Hi Patrick,
My Bavaria 40 has two bolts in that location, with a pear anode attached.
BTW, what do you paint your Volvo folding prop with? I have the same prop, but just keep it smooth and polished. I do get some minor barnacle growth and I’ve been considering painting it.
I have a Stripper fitted too, which I have found very useful for lobster pots!

Yes that is definitely for a doughnut anode – I replace mine every year.
I paint my saildrive and prop with International Trilux – that is suitable for aluminium components such as the saildrive and seems to suit my prop.
