Mount one of these in that guest cabin that you use for stowage. A great companion to that motor-driven welding machine to complete your independent way of life. When you need a turnbuckle or snap-shackle and the nearest West Marine is 1000 miles away, simply pile all the spare lifejackets, boat cushions, boarding ladders, rope, foul weather gear, and tool boxes somewhere else and machine a replacement from one of those pieces of stainless or aluminum that you stocked up on before leaving the good old USofA. Don't forget the cutting oil and safety glasses!
