I know allot of people that say u got to tap the zinc plates with a hammer to help connection. That true?, they typically do it where the ball is.

Hmm never heard that one.. we sand a little & tighten to make sure contact is good and has worked well for us for years - and deteriorated zincs end of season prove they worked 👍

So the zinc simply needs to have clean contact with a metal part of the boat, below the waterline. There is no direct connection with any part of the electrical system?

Correct. The idea is that any electrolysis attacks the zinc & not components on your boat like your props, etc.
