I suppose getting hit would do it or over time with corrosion. I regularly inspect the cables controlled by the quadrant on my boat, but never find anything. I'm going to pull the binnacle at some point and lubricate. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com A water-filled rudder? That's a new one on me. I saw an ad once for a water-filled anchor that was just the cat's pajamas. Empty it out, it's really light. Fill it up, it gets really heavy. Fill it with fresh water and you have an extra supply of drinking water to boot. Well, ok... not filled but definitely had water intrusion... nice idea though.. Did it morph into a lizard-like rudder as you watched it? Maybe the lizard was just peeing? How much longer do you think you'll be having those flashbacks? What do you call the sock puppet of another sock puppet? A second-hand sock? A re-sock? Socket? Socker? Sockette? Or just ridiculous? Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) I suppose it would be miscellaneous hosiery. so hoser would work. |
