Since we all have bolt-on lead keels, torque has one way or another been a 
subject of many posts over the years. Personally I
have found it impossible to get to the recommended torque with just myself and 
a 1/2 inch torque wrench. I wound up using an
electric impact wrench that was supposed to top out at 250 foot pounds, and 
what with the extension and 3/4 inch adapter figured I
would still be a bit under but probably close enough.

 Anyway I have wondered about using a torque multiplier, and I see that 
Princess Auto has them on sale for 70 bucks. Here is a
link, in case anyone else is interested. I have no connection or interest in 
the company except as an occasional customer.
Specified accuracy isn't that great but probably better than by guess and by 
gosh.
