I'll have a quick release clip on it in case I need to take it with me. My questions is just how sturdy are these things? Next to the mizzen mast on the small aft deck it will be exposed, while on a cruise, to sun, rain, salt spray, dew, etc around the clock. Can it deal with that or do I need to detach it and tuck in in a locker at night? (I would prefer to have it on deck and working all the time). Any advice would be appreciated. thanks Steve<BR/>steve.earley@verizon.netStevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17060896232365651376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1350911734409694445.post-87297153753746939292008-03-25T18:51:00.000-04:002008-03-25T18:51:00.000-04:00For a treat toss some dried stawberries in with th...For a treat toss some dried stawberries in with the mangoes.
