Safety Chacks

Just a reminder to check your safety devices before you head out. Yesterday while working in the bilge I noticed that the bonding wire going to a 2” ball valve on a thru hull had fallen off. So I remedy that and try to test the valve and the stud that holds the handle on broke. A little thing like that could be a real bummer while out on the big pond.

I just wanted to bring this up because a little thing like a ball valve could be easily over looked when the fish are on the chew, but devastating if a hose blows.
