Also, beware of the difference between a
reduction of strength by X5 vs.retention of
strength... no big deal if it's 50% but a value
of 60%
Hey Joe,
That is normal clear weather dock conditions for
a weekend boat check around here, just above the
Pacific North West. Except we don't have none of
those ice thingies. One of the reasons we don't
mind the rain so much... no frost.
BTW, it doesn't matter how far away the ladder
is.
Hi Bruce,
The other guys are on the right track regarding kellet associations.
But six ounces is ridiculously small of course, for the purpose,
seeing as 10 - 50 percent of anchor weight is good.
I suspect your little weights were sewn in to act as a kellet "stop"
since it doesn't do much
Hi Bill,
I suggest you try a test patch of Penetrol. Apply a very thin film
with a rag and see how you like it.
It is a very old product made by the Flood Company.
Search out some forums on how people use it. Interesting. If I recall
correctly, Dennis is also a fan of Penetrol.
I can help Mike too.
Hey Mike.
Another significant difference in the boats these
guys are talking about is a kitchen. I guess they
are not fitted with a gallery, saloon, head and
such that you & I are familiar with.
BTW, where's Wally?

Blame the navigator, not the tools... and if the navigator is a tool
then it still gets the blame.
At the risk of sounding like a techno-peasant, is the iNav another
apple thingy? I'm still stuck on OpenCPN or Visual Navigator
(without a dongle) on an XP box .
Cheers, Russ
Thanks for the well wishes Dennis, et al.
And from Melody & I, we wish everyone the Best of Winter Solstice, a
very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Don't worry. Be happy.

Hi Doug,
We have Systems Three made near our area and similarly much cheaper
than West systems.
I suggest calling EPS and speaking directly with a tech about what
you wish to do with their product. You will probably find a wealth of
information and gain trust, if warranted, in what they
otia. There seem
to be a lot of very well upgraded C 35's out there. Thanks!
