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.

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.

That's why they have Bob... he'll eat anything!

Not to worry Jon, it's not sold in NYC, NY rats
are warfarin resistant, eat the stuff for desert, ditto
for the rodent population.

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.

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
