Stus-List Tool recommendation
This is from an almost 10-year old test, but it should be still true:
A study done by Machinist's Workshop magazine in their April 2007 issue looked
at different penetrating oils to see which one did the best job of removing a
rusted bolt by measuring the pounds
with the wrench on
it. You will ruin the temper on your wrench.

Hi David,
If it hasn't been mentioned for max torque with less chance of stripping
make sure you go with a 12 point closed wrench instead of 6. Ratcheting
closed wrenches are a pleasure to work with but for high torque the ratchet
can possibly get damaged.. I'd go with a plain ol' forged one pi

Yes, as a matter of fact the Alden wrenches are sized like normal
wrenches. The ones that we made with the grad students were fixed jaw.
The pivoting clamp lower jaw is an improvement to the concept. I don't
have any in my tool box.

David,
Not sure if they will do the job for you but I find the GearWrench 85035 35
piece MicroDriver Set very useful when working on boats.
I also find the GearWrench ratcheting wrenches useful. They ratchet with
as little as 5 degrees swing. Very nice when working in tight spaces.

The only ratching open ended wrench I have expierience with is these from
Sears.

They worked fine but the downside was that you needed at least 60° (one
flat) of rotation before the "ratcheting" action would work.
