You could always ask the boy's who I have a suspicion moved my boat, it was firmly jamed in behind various heavy static objects, and the objects never moved but it re-appeared in a big field/parking area next to the helicopters, is my black sooty cover evidence I wonder

"Transom Terminal Fittings" in last night kor ini't getting darker earlier. Finished it off under a rather romatic sodium glow. They were a bitch to take out and a bitch to refit but job done now and I have something to lift from when that day arrives. PRC worked well so that will protect the mating surfaces from any further corrosion as well as acting as the bond.
