Colin, as a metallurgist I'd like to point out that you should also replace and carbon steel rollers that come in contact with the stainless chain. And also clean out the locker from any old rust, contact with carbon steel will cause :galvanic corrosion" which will transfer the rust from the carbon steel to the stainless.

I am an old man like Don and I can share his excitement, although I spent a part of my life as a sailor and got see all these places. I hope he has a great voyage and I'm sure he will get the hang of it in no time. Look after him guys, it takes us older folk a little longer but we can still do it right. Bless you Colin for giving Don the chance, his smile tells it all.

@@ParlayRevival Why did you go with 318 vs 316 ss chain? Thought someone may have already asked, no result via search. @Don, don't recall Stephen attempting anything remotely similar to wakeboarding. You would have got up with more HP (maybe a lighter Colin). Upcoming Vid, Parley gets gifted a larger outboard for Don's called back for another attempt (jumps shark like Fonzie). At 58 I'd give it a go, as long as Jamie's not at the helm, & I can wear a one piece.

My wife and I chartered in Raiatea in Jan 2020. All the locals told us to just skip Bora Bora. It was about the time that Archer's mooring broke and put her on the rocks. Given those 2 things we skipped Bora Bora and really enjoyed a week in Huahine, Raiatea and Ta'aha. It was magical. The only issue was that it was rainy season so we had to watch out for squalls.

Thanks for that chain info Colin. I've worked in the steel fabrication industry for 30+ years and was not familiar with that alloy of stainless steel. Most specs for my SS projects in marine environments call for pipe and plates to be alloy 316L. As a side note, be sure that any fabricated SS that you put on your boat is passivated beforehand. SS bolts also. It will prevent the SS from bleeding rust over time.
