lower bolts in a bravo 1 transome
I am wondering if the lower bolts are susposed to be aluminum. That is what I found anyway and they are completely eroded away. I want to replace them with stainless bolts any input?

what I took off was nothing but a carriage bolt made of aluminum. Since reading your input Past Due I have found a set of zinc bolts with anode nuts. But from what you are saying if I am correct it is better to use aluminum in salt water?
