A kit was developed to reduce corrosion-related maintenance costs by cathodically protecting Fleet moorings. Maintenance costs for Fleet moorings in the Naval Shore Establishment might be reduced by $360,000 annually if the moorings were cathodically protected by this system. The kit consists of Special-D zinc anodes, wire rope, and special fittings. It can be used either to install a cathodic protection system in a Fleet mooring in situ or to replace consumed link-anodes in situ. A guide is included for use of this kit by field activities.
