While this will no doubt start a war (which I'll win again!), I thought it
would be interesting to discuss the best power tools aboard and kept in the
dockbox....

MUST be kept Aboard....
Makita drill...bullet proof
AC Skil dril....Best for bigger jobs
RotoZip kit....rarely used, but great when it's needed!
Weller soldering iron
B&D Cordless powerdriver with flex head...used all the time and a cheap
disposable item.

Living happily Ashore in the box....
B&D Grinder/polisher....the best!
Porter Cable profile sander...a great tool!
Husky Powerwasher...have yet to use
Firestorm circular saw....have yet to use-use the yard's table saw
Bosch Jig Saw....rarely used

Anything else I need can usually be borrowed from the yard's shop.

Give it up Nutsy,

Your power tool list aboard speaks volumes about what kind of sailor
you are. You've confirmed everything the group has be alway said about
you
It is no wonder you don't sail very far. YOU DON"T HAVE A LONG ENOUGH
SHORE POWER DOCK LINE!! :^)

You've BUSTED YOURSELF AGAIN.

With all the power equipment aboard there no room for BEER!

Its no wonder you leave the Fenders hanging on the rails, You have no
room to store them.

You're BUSTED again and by your own list.

Give it up Nutsy. Your power tool list is about a true as your shackle
on the Dock Cleat Your power washer is used to wash away the BS

OT

With all the power equipment aboard there no room for BEER!

Most people drink. They can't help it. No willpower. Smokers are even weaker.
You follow their lead.
And that's a fact.

....this from Big Bob who pulled a chest muscle picking up a bicycle and had
to be rushed to the hospital!

Ya big whiner!

No, most people drink because they're part of society. You probably
don't drink because you can't handle lifting the glass to your face. How
long have you been using a straw?
