I was just at West MArine and happened to see some "outrigger backing
plates", ewwwwwwww, pretty shiny aluminum............$68.00 WHOA, are they kidding?
Good GAWD, my CNC mill could do those for nearly nuthin. Even better, I
could do it out of my fav material, G10, garolite and it wouldnt cause corrosion.
What Y'all fishy people think? Do people really pay that much for a
couple pieces of shiny aluminum with holes in em?

Just find the welding shop that handles installs and repairs on fire
department stainless steel, buy some stainless scraps, and have the shop
drill the resulting plates to match your outriggers, anchor rollers, et
cetera. $10 each for 1/2" stainless steel. Never heard of garolite.


Good on you. You stopped running from the tax man long enough to nicely
answer a boating post.



Next time you are in Oz, get a working brain. I just use Harry's handle
because it so ****es off right-wing losers. You know, losers like you.


You use a loser's handle to **** off losers? Your logic escapes me.


You'll notice that Krause's lying abilities haven't improved.
