    What is this for?

    We bought our boat with all the tools and spares the original owner had on the boat when he was running it up and down the east coast and he spent a lot of time in the Bahamas. Found this in a tool box the PO left in the engine room. Can anyone tell me what this is and it's likely purpose? Norm
