After 38 years, the bilge of my woodie is well pickled with
antifreeze, oil, sal****er and you name it. And yes, a little rock salt
in there doesn't hurt.


What no disel ?

Ummmm, ever wonder how to describe that "boat smell" to a non-wood
boat person ?!? I think you just did.

And dont forget a few scews, cut nylon zip ties, wood shavings, and
what didn't disolve of that 10mm wrench.

Antifreeze is a great wood preservative. Unfortunately, pets like to drink
it. This might be good in case of rats.
