I'm still not certain you were wrong (rivets notwithstanding).

Re: What part is this?
Perfect.

That means that you have to keep them because the minimum for any item kept on a boat is for it to have two uses.

Yours has three.

Congratulations.

Funny. Not sure my wife has two uses on board. Is there a different formula?
