Propeller Electrolysis

When we hauled our 31 we noticed extreme electrolysis on both Hytorq nibral props. All other underwater metal was fine and the shaft and rudder zincs were on and worn normally. We also have a large zinc on the transom. This has never happened before and we would like some suggestions from the Bertram group. How do you feel about Stainless props instead of bronze or nibral? Would chrome plating either bronze or nibral help?
