Toe Rail Recaulk



I have been waiting patiently to see if there were any real sailors
here
and apparently there are NOT.

Real sailors would know "toerail" is one word. Duh!

You're welcome!

I've told you before Willie, keep your mouth closed and people may
think that you are stupid; open it and they'll know it.

Cheers,

WRONG! Good Old Boat Magazine uses the correct term "toerail".

Good Old Boat knows their nautical terms. You and Skippy don't.

It's that simple. "Toe rail' is a lubberly version of the old,
time-tested term 'toerail'.
