Zinc rich primers in submerged service on steel ships

Q. We are painting a steel hulled boat, and looking at some zinc rich Moisture Cured Urethane to apply both above and below the waterline on the freshly blasted steel.

Does anyone have experience with this application? My concern is zinc loaded paint's effect on hull protection anodes, and the reverse.

Thank you
