We're getting along into late April and it's time to splash,

by this time.

Let's hear some on the water reports from you guys.

Using a specialised crimping tool, I just installed a shielded RJ-45 plug for a friends
Radar unit.

Unfortuantely the old plug was connected to his expensive Garmin Chart plotter which was
stolen from his boat (up on boat lift, mounted in console.) :-(

The theives cut that cable, but took the effort to un-plugged others.

They've recently hit seven other boats in nearby canals.
