Well, then the TV won't matter either way. Many modern cruisers carry a TV.

I quit about 20 years ago. Best thing I ever did for my health.


If you were a serious smoker, then you made a major accomplishment.
1) You extended your lifespan
2) Improved quality of life
3) Saved a LOT of cash
4) Beat the businessmen and chemists to had you marked for a sucker.

I like Mooron and I wish he'd be serious for a moment and understand and act on
the above.

Damn few voyaging sailors carry TV's.


You're correct...in 1973!!!!
Many cruisers now carry a TV and DVDs. Modern electronics, charging systems and
batteries have made it worthwhile.
On your other icorrect point, modern boats usually carry a few power tools of
course.

Nutsy, Go for a couple of week long trips and discover how soon those
power tools and their charging units become a PITA. Even one is in the
way!

How would they be in the way, Thom? They are packed properly and stowed. Do you
cruiser on a Sunfish?

Do you buy your food from a store...


Comparing this to the direct and terrible destruction of your body through
smoking and drinking is pretty silly.
What's more is that you know I'm right. Smoking is terrible and your addiction
was carefully engineered so a few people could drive new 7 series BMW's every
year. You're being used and abused. And you stand for it. Ganzy didn't.
It's all about self respect, Mooron. You either have it or you don't.

As it is I don't have to charge the tools much, because they aren't needed
much. How would this change during cruising, Thom? Over a three month cruise,
how often will my B&D driver need charging? Thom, you're being very silly. The
powered drill and screwdriver are great tools and belong on boats!

We're talking about your collection of power tools.

I carry a small bag of screwdrivers, files, a socket set, saw and a couple
of other bits and pieces.

WRONG! Many prescription drugs *are* considered poison. Not all but some...
botox for example... and there are several neurotoxins I believe that are
used in
medical treatments.

Try cumadin, a blood thinner, sold at your local hardware store as Warfarin,
a rat poison.

Nutsy,

How in the world do you pack away a battery powered screw driver on a
charger or even just a battery in a chargerr, being chargered. Tell me
how you pack them away?

Secondly, why would you want to pack them away when a simple screw
driver and a twist drill stores easier and take up less space. If your
lucky you won't have to un-store them.

I keep a regular screw driver, a phillips screw driver, a needle nose
pliers and a six inch cresent wench in a pouch not much larger than an
eye glass case, in my boat cutlery drawer. That is my every day working
tools. The tool box stays packed away.

I sail for the enjoyment of sailing. Doing maintenance shouldn't be
necessary when you're sailinng, it should be done when you are at the
dock or on the hard. That is when you can use the power tools and they
are available from my shop. They don't belong on the boat. Not a 29
footer.

On a larger vessel with a walk in Engine Room, and Genset then a work
bench makes sense

Aboard Alien, the powered screwdriver actually lives in a plastic case under
the sink. The charger is with it. It gets charged off the inverter or shore
power rarely and has a nice selection of tips. The unit has a gear switch that
allows it to act effectivly as a drill as well. It works quite well for most
jobs, though I still keep the Makita aboard.
Here's a pic. The model I have has a flashlight and tape measure built in as
well. Cute.

It should be, but sometimes isn't. I think the power screwdriver is one of
greatest tool inventions of late.

Well I have a 32 footer and she's got a LOT of available storage space. I
suppose If I took a 2 month cruise, I'd pick a more lean list of tools. For
shorter sails and bay sailing I prefer to have more tools.Can't hurt. Might
help.

Especially, if you stay below and fool with them instead of actually
sailing... got ya. There aren't any places to pull in if there's a problem
in the NY area.
