Default Cutters

Who carries bolt (shroud) cutters aboard? I do.

R.

I do.

I carry both - the boat came with bolt cutters; the first new item I bought
for the boat was cable cutters. In the course of doing some salvage on some
boats which were chopped up in the yard, I had an opportunity to use my bolt
cutters, which were at the boat, and not the cable cutters, which were in
the storage bin at home. Lots of work...

I don't want to have to clip the last few strands with dykes/lineman's
pliers or anything else, all of which I have, but which aren't needed with
cable cutters...

Skip, hoping never to use either in anger
