Hi,

I like the idea of the Edson Rail Mount, but I have a question for anyone
who has used one.

How do you ensure that you don't lose the Key from the Wheelshaft?

In the winter when I take the wheel off so I can get to the back of the
cockpit under the cover, I wrap the Wheelshaft with the key in it with
masking tape.  I suppose I could do the same while cruising but I am
wondering if anyone else had a more elegant solution.

C&C 34/36 --  Big wheel and love it.
