Sticky Tape...

Hello...

Double sided sticky tape is not good for mounting deck drain covers on the upper decks of a million dollar yacht - unless you are an ass - OK ...

If anyone here has tried this - please raise your hand - YOU - the fat guy at the back - in the comfy chair - did you use sticky tape to build a million dollar yacht ...

Well - you are an ass - hold out your hands mister ...

Are you the same fat ass who did not grade the drains to the centerline - does the owner have to purposely roll the yacht to get the standing water to the thru hull - go stand in the corner mister ...

SH.

Wha... what's wrong with double-sided tape for deck drains? I mean, those drains were under an overhang, so they wouldn't be getting wet, I mean, that's what someone would say that's an ass, but not me, who would glue them down with crazy glue or at least window putty.
What asses!

You have got to be kidding me.

You saw this on a real boat? What was holding the shaft struts on, self-tappers and bathtub caulk?
