Abstract
A ceramic conductor is supported by an electrically insulative support member for attachment directly to a marine propulsion drive and for use as either an anode or electrode in a corrosion prevention system. The ceramic conductor is received within a depression formed in a surface of the electrically insulative support member and the exposed surface of the ceramic conductor can be offset from or coplanar with an exposed surface of the electrically insulative support member. The ceramic conductor can comprise oxides of iridium, tantalum and titanium that are formed as a coating on a titanium substrate.
