Quality Fan & Clocks
Way better than anything bubbles has on his plastic French throw away
boat. 1942 Chelsea Bridge clock off the USS Oklahoma City CLG 5. http://community.webshots.com/photo/...3212926PkWsOv]http://thumb6.webshots.com/t/42/42/5...6PkWsOv_th.jpg[/url] Capt Neal was correct, buy a fan with old fashion ball bearings that can be oiled and you have a fan that never fails. I chose the 1939 Emerson with the Patd. Parker blades. Better than any modern fan. http://community.webshots.com/photo/...63212926IzFoij Joe |

John Cairns If it's on Rob's boat it's a cheap quartz clock...on RedCloud it's a Chronometer. Sure make noting time in the logs easy. has a 10" face, I'd like to find the matching barometer at a decent price. Joe |

Also had the teak deck grating the helmsman stood on. Both the ships I was stationed aboard have been melted down for razor blades, that makes me an old geezer now. Don't feel bad mine's on the bottom of the Atlantic. Hopefully the fish will enjoy her. Way to deep for most divers. Joe DSK |

Max Max, I do not think minimal distance is correct when refering to Brody's dash to the troff. The path of least resistance would be the proper term. Joe |
