i think that basically works the same way older boats did, something like putting a big piece of metal that oxidized faster that the boats metal on the bottom of the boat and electrically charge it and any rust would attack it before the boat...we did some sort of experiment in an engineering lab once, but i know a catalyst is needed (ie the salt water with the boats) so i'm not sure how this would work?

My guess would be road salt.

But I don't get how it works...
What I do know is that the "after" picture is just a photoshop of the "before" picture - and not a very good one.
