A Couple of New....

Post by Maine Sail »

For anyone interested these are my latest...

Great stuff as always, I've looked to your articles for direction on many occasions (I have a few rolls of your butyl tape for my rebedding projects).
Keep 'em coming.

Thanks, particularly for the "battery melt down"' post. I shall go asap and re-check my own boats battery connections.
