I have a similar set up with handheld VHFs. I have one I use whenever I'm
aboard and a nice one sitting on the bottom of the bay. It was on when it
went over. I wonder how long the bat lasted.

I have two sets of binoculars. A cheap pair that I use for everyday
knocking about, and a really nice expensive pair that I keep on the bottom
of Lake Superior.

Just one? Hahah ha ha ha

Hey, I'm poor, what can I say? But they are those nice fold up ones (not
carboard but something sturdier) that someone threw out at a rodeo here.
They were Dodge Ram promo opera glass/binocular thing. I wiped the chew off
of it and they work great!

Correct. 1 point to Dave

And, yes it is done with dock lines as well.

There is a trick to this. I bet Jeff or Doug will know it.

Hint: It allows you to take off either pair without removing
the other.


Oh, you mean dipping the strap of the second. I hadn't thought this notion
particularly related to binoculars. You dip the loop or eye any time you
need to be able to remove either loop without removing the other.
