Practical repair hacks you can use on your boat

The link is to a short video of amazing hacks for repairs.
They are so simple I cannot believe I didn't think of them.
I particularly like the first on as I have spent hours sawing bolts.

Enjoy

Re: Practical repair hacks you can use on your boat

Try posting on a public platform. Otherwise FB banner covers like half the screen. Ugly.

I like the idea with cutting the bolt. I did not know this one earlier.
