Well with all the discussions about essential cruising
gear, I'd thought I would start the bucket list. That is a list of ways a bucket can be used on a
boat..
Heres My short list as a start:
Haulling
water up to wash the
deck.
Emergency rudder used with two ropes trailed off the stern aft switching from port to starboard to control direction
Tool holder when up the
mast
washing machine with a plunger
seat when upside down
fish holder
emergency head, for some old salts it is the
head
Taking trash out
bailing
water
Water purifier with hole and a filter in the bottom (think large britta thingy)
I hear you can also use it with a mop to wash the
deck though I've not done this ;-)
rat trap sometimes a cat trap but not for Mr. Timmy.
washing up
doing dishes
step stool
potted plants (ok probably not on a boat)
What other ways can a bucket be used on a
boat????
