Topic: good advice from salvager

Happy spring y'all,

Got a good bit of advice from a local salvager who'd spent about a week trying to salvage the wreck of a 34' sailboat hard up on the rocky shore of the Bruce Peninsula in persistent heavy westerlies....You know that box of disposable rubber gloves you keep on board, the one that dispenses gloves like Kleenex...do yourself a favour and put the gloves in a plastic bag or container and ditch the cardboard box.  In the watery mess that was the interior of said wreck, the stray gloves that escaped their dissolved box and went slithering around kept getting sucked onto the end of the intake hoses for the salvage pumps and choking them off...not what you want then the bunk cushions are floating and EVERYTHING is in the middle of the cabin.
