wrote: Gunnar, a common Scandinavian name. Indeed. The only Gunnar I have ever met was an old Swede who ran Gunnar's Marine Service. Bought a replacement trailer winch line from him. "How long would that be", he asks. "Fifteen feet", says I. "You want the end spliced?". I said OK. About 3 seconds (at least it seemed that fast) I had the the nicest splice around that metal eyelet! Funny thing about Gunnar -- he didn't own a boat. Said he only got on the water once or twice a year -- when he couldn't fix the customer's outboard problem using his test tank. Retired a couple of years ago and his kids shut the business. -- Q |
