Also, check for severely corroded metal components. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < Posted By: Duane in Indy Date Posted: July-20-2016 at 9:47am Warpman89 wrote: Hello, what's the general rule with lifting rings on older boats?
