Re: Stus-List Toe Rail water drain/ now wicks

Shucks, Lee

Actually, the wicks I used were plain and uncolored.   However, in the
spirit of extreme vanity, Touche' does have customized red dock lines.  (I
didn't buy them.  They were a gift.)

Great solution Dennis, as usual!  

For the rest of us, I’d like to point out Dennis may have painted his boat red, 
to go with his wick?  

On my “beater boat ” we use a ripped terrycloth rag, works just fine in rainy 
Seattle and looks “natural”, turns green in a week.  

Very happy to have the metal toe rail, Lee
