Manateeman

Was hoping to get your opinion specifically, on a post I just made. I've read quite a few of your posts and you have great advice (and obvious experience). Thanks. I'll try to figure out how to send you the link

Ha.
Well just never got around to filling it out. Will take a look and fill it in. For the record I'm in late 50's, been sailing since the age of 7 , previously owned boats that I've raced and cruised and have a boat on order but won't get it for another 14 months.

No it means something MUCH different

Manatee man, where in New Bedford did you buy your mooring swivel?

Mark: now that being said--just saw an article -with PICTURES!! Let me process this and get back to you. Thanks

Thank you! However...I do research and I dont really understand the words so I dont understand the overall article. I need someone to talk to me like I am in grade 1 so I can have a rudimentary understanding of what is going on. I read that article that a poster kindly pointed me to--what can happen with corroded keel bolts--and I know the words, but putting it altogether for it to make sense...nope. thank you for any help you can give me--if you can REALLY dumb it down for me, that would be great.
