Abstract
Results of laboratory and field trials on cathodic protection of aluminium sheathing in fishing boats by ternary aluminium anodes are presented . The high negative potential of 1 .06 V with respect to saturated calomel electrode, its appreciably low anodic polarisation
and high current output are favourable factors for using the ternary aluminium
anodes . The low rate of consumption of the anode material under service trials attests
its economic viability .
