You can go smaller too depending on the boat, but if you're towing say a 37' Intrepid at 30 knots, you'll want that much so it doesn't skip and...
I've found that if you want some resistance but want the outboards up. I use about 20' of 1" (or larger) chain, connect that to around 15'-20 of...
I haven't dealt with sea-safe. However one of the boats I manage was chewing through zincs every 4-6 weeks and we had a surveyor check everything...
All measurements are in US gallons. I managed/ran a 50' Azimut for about a year. It was a pretty good riding hull, but could be wet. The layout...
