Hello from Toronto

3/4 inch....and 1 1/2... that is on the safe side I would say.
Prevent ramming container ships! They are vulnerable, and the boxes float so long.

Apex1, we sold an apartment and a farm back in Europe (when market was down, of course) to buy all the electronics (autopilot, wind, speed, depth, chartplotter, GPS, VHF, radar, HAM/SSB radio, solar panel, wind generator) and the safety equipment. What can I say, we figured if this is what makes us happy we might as well invest in it.

Right so! Investing in a dream is´nt wasted, as long as it guarantees the dream comes true. Investing in business does´nt know such guarantees.
But most people like to dream all life long, what they will do, once they can afford it. When they can ever afford it, they are too old or have lost their imagination.
Go ahead, you have proven for yourself you´re on the right track. Nothing else counts.

Regards
Richard
