One Tool Box Is Never Enough
Power and Motoryachts|November 2017

If you’re planning a big job on your boat, you’re going to be using a number of tools and other items.

Capt. Bill Pike
One Tool Box Is Never Enough
You’ll be using stuff devoted to electrics—you know, like a multimeter, a terminal crimper, cable ties, a collection of spade, ring, and snap-plug connectors—and other things for fiberglass and its repair, like bottles of epoxy resin and hardener, acetone, woven roving and a passel of adhesives and caulking materials. And you’ll most likely need mechanical stuff like wrenches, sockets and screwdrivers.

You get the idea here, I’m sure.
