Galvanic corrosion on carbon fiber yachts

[Mr LGM]

Hi there,

I would like to find out if there are any preventative measures for galvanic corrosion on carbon fiber vessels. More specifically, it seems that carbon fiber, when in contact with aluminium for instance, could cause galvanic corrosion. A follow-up question would then be: Can carbon fiber cause stainless screws/bolts to corrode as well, assuming both materials are exposed to seawater?

Cheers
