Stus-List PC for cheap
Think about this in the context of sailboat ownership. 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.

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.

Haywire - perhaps a little dated now, as in gone haywire, Close enough for farm use, a couple of my favourites. But for boats, flakey should be the correct term.

Re: Stus-List PC for cheap
DYI - Damn Yankee Ingenuity. We CCers have tremendous platforms for tinkering - old but solid design and construction. And, aesthetically correct. Some like to tinker moving cars and travellers. Others change rudders, rigs and keels. It's all fun. Maybe you're thinking about something like the Bic Butane Propane Detector. Now that's a dumb one. :-) Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Fri, May 16, 2014 at 3:10 AM, Dennis C. via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote: Think about this in the context of sailboat ownership.
