we had a short that killed the engine -- we seperated the wires out
(plastic
melted after touching a manifold) the closest marina was "Narrows
Marina"
at
day island.

Now I like these guys; they're nice -- friendly, and fuel prices are
reasonable.
the electrical tape -- $15.99

yes; I bought it.



Next time you're at Lowe's or The Home Depot:

Well -- Why would I buy a 70 cent roll of tape when I have a 16 dollar
roll???
Mine MUST be better.

We were underway; and didn't want to abandon our trip to go home.... If I
had
been home, there was a couple of rolls in the trunk of the car.... But
I'd have
spent that much in fuel to go home to get it...


That is one of the items in the boat tool kit. Plus a meter and some wire
of different colors. Plus some butt connectors and other end connectors.
