re: Help - Boat Corrosion at Drain Plug

Definitely galvanic corrosion. It’s a little concerning that the plug is corroded and broken though. I would expect the hull to corrode to protect the plug so your plug should be almost perfect. Replace with similar metal.
Magnesium Hull anodes wouldn’t hurt either.

Yeah, but what are those screws made of? Brass will act as an anode to protect some stainless steel alloys and given the amount of adhesive/sealant between the brass fitting and aluminum hull, there might not be a good connection between the two, unlike with the screws and fitting.
