Just got back from the boat.. all is in good shape. Replaced the
alternator belt, which was stretched to the limit of the adjusting arm.
I kept the old one, but I'm not sure it's good even for a spare.


Just throw it out...and get another new one for a spare...no sense
putting an old worn out one on in an emergency situation...and I can't
think of any alternate uses for a worn out alternator belt...


You're not being very creative, one could easily fashion a garrote for use
in case Neal/Wilbur/Whatever shows up!

I wouldn't want to waste the belt.
