At flight school we used to call it <insulting word for ethnic group> engineering. Best example was using foil gum wrapper to "fix" a break in the shielding on a spark plug wire.

At one time or another, we've all done it. Some of us still do it. We all know "that guy down the pier" that's raised it to an art form. What? Doing or fixing something on a sailboat "on the cheap" that does or can lead to less than satisfactory results. Something that may create an unsafe condition that may put crew or family at risk. Something that eventually will need to be done over the right way and end up costing more in the end. So......my question is "what clever, imaginative, politically correct phrase describes cheap?" I'm talking about literary genius like using "deferred success" as PC to describe failure. I've considered "irresponsibly frugal", "excessively thrifty", etc. but I just can't seem to create that "aha" PC phrase for "cheap". Dennis C.
