Well aircraft hangers that I see are often left open.  I drive past the MSP
hangers once in a while and especially in summer they are usually open.
When I worked at an airport in the early 90's C-5A and C-130 were almost
always open during the week.  I have no experience with HEF so if keeping
the door closed is an issue with boats wouldn't it be an issue with open
hangers.  How do they deal with that?

Might be possible of the storage area were completely closed but most are
open sided.  In that scenario, HEF is of little value.

When this came up years ago, someone suggested High Expansion Foam. Does
your response to the customer have to be inexpensive too? It can protect
airplanes 3 dimensionally, with fuel and enclosed compartments. Not too
different from boats

Subject: Boat Storage

what bothers me is a client has come to us, asked us to protect his product,
and we throw are hands up.

we should offer him something.  Completely indemnify yourself, but to say
there is "nothing" that can protect boats when we just got through
glorifying sprinklers in compartments, don't float.

sure, a compartment is relatively easy to sprinkLER relative to rack storage
of expanded-foam-filled plastic, but it can't be impossible.

I would give the client a design.  Tell them this is what it will cost, and
tell them to grant your company complete indemnity.
You want to help them, but you have to preserve your company's life, too.
This insecure solution for the client, still may be what they want...rather
than simply operating naked.

The republic government offers the marvel of a judicial system, which is a
proven vehicle when filled with rational, even rationally compassionate
thinking jurists.  but the judicial system is broke and a joke if decisions
are rendered by a quorom of incompetents.  People should get paid
full-salary to serve jury duty, because the present system is not working --
well.
