Good find!!

But Marina dumpster diving is a hard habit to break. I have accumulated to much stuff and I'm on the "12-step-program" now myself.

My favorites were a new single trumpet stainless boat horn and a new looking Shakespeare marine loud hailer speaker horn. Both had the same problem and discarded by their owner. "Cold solder joints" which were easily fixed with a soldering iron.

Not to mention all the crab pots, lines and corks the Fish and Wildlife officers pickup and throw in our dumpster. Got so bad that the Port asked the officers to just set it along side the dumpsters, so people wouldn't crawl inside to retrieve the items. They were afraid someone might get hurt!
