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 |
