Re: Autoprop H6 Tools
Paul S (Rita Kathryn),
That's very generous of you! We won't return to Grenada until 9/26, and then it will take a bit to do the work. It will be as late as the end of October before I would return

Re: Spinnaker Pole Strut Support
What I have seen happen is that salt accumulates where the stainless steel tubing is crimped and folded over the shrouds and held in place with a bolt.
This is an important area to rinse with

In the South Pacific we have found C-Map to be very good. Navionics is very good in SOME places but definitely not all.
