There are also some small areas of rust, as seen in the pictures as very
dark spots. Those didn't stain our deck, in the case of the arm, nor our
anchor system, in the case of the joint, so they're pretty minor.

Yes, we do - and I also have a FAQ for guests on Flying Pig which lets

Ragged Islands to Ft. Pierce Passage - 3/3-3/6/2011
We left you after cleaning the bottom of Flying Pig and having one last
amazing conch dinner aboard a buddy boat. We'll have to live without the
pleasures of conch until we return to the Bahamas this summer, and we'll be
doing a bottom job (one
speed to 5.4-7.9
knots. The higher end of that range is where Flying Pig really shines, so
we were well on the way to an early arrival. All this fluky business,
however, meant that I was constantly playing the wheel, moving the apparent
wind 10* one way or another as the wind died or filled
, on a paper towel, I put in
the batteries again and confirmed that all basic functions and buttons, save
the one for macro, seemed to be working. Whew - getting a replacement here
in the Bahamas would be a real nuisance, never mind how much it cost.
So, yet another adventure in the lives of Flying Pig
As do any other mast steps I've ever seen, except these have that 2

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you
didn't do than
cruisers run their batteries at
50-80%, a sure life-shortener. Keeping them topped up will dramatically extend
their life, helped by regular equalization, not really possible unless you're
tied to shore power or something like ours...
