Some other suggestions. Duct tape, wooden plugs in case a through hull is an issue, hack saw for cutting stuff from around props, rudder, etc., pipe wrench for stuffing box on inboard engine, marlin spike/knife, SS crews, bolts, clamps, etc, WD-40. John Jennings

I have a '76 standard rig with an outboard and in addition to the sockets, wrenches, and vise grips the tools I carry are wire cutters and a wire stripper/crimper. And an important safety tool, if in the unfortunate event that it is ever needed is a bolt cutter. These tools are all I've ever needed to fix/upgrade anything on my boat with the exception of a drill, sander, and brushes that I bring from home. Enjoy the boat, mine has brought me a lot of pleasure. -Ivan Chason S/V Blow Me II Chesapeake City, MD --- On Sun, 11/23/08, Derek Atkin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Derek Atkin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: catalina27-talk: Tool reccomendations To: [email protected] Date: Sunday, November 23, 2008, 12:15 AM I have recently just purchased a 1979 Catalina 27. As I am putting together my list of things to buy - was curious to hear any special tool reccomendations. I assume just about everything on the boat is SAE. Aside from sockets, wrenches, screwdrives etc. Anything that I should keep on board ?
