What are the hacksaws for?

mncruiser · Aug 1, 2020

While browsing for the next boat this morning, I ran across this picture....now, I have a hacksaw on my boat- But I don't have TWO....seemingly at the ready to violently and raggedly saw (as all hack saws do) things. Made me chuckle...

The one on the right does look better than mine...less hacky. Hacksaw envy!

If you can carry only one saw, make it a hacksaw.

Since the hacksaws and the belts are stored together, I’m going to guess there is a relationship there.

One fine toothed blade for thin, hard materials and one coarse blade for everything else,
of course! I think the grouping with the belts is just 'things that can be hung up'.

Hoses and PVC for two things.

I have a sawsall on board for that type of work.

To cut the tuna that you caught, or the pirate that tried to come aboard but got caught lol

Spares ad infinium....
See my HS latin teacher said it would come in handy someday.
But I probably got it wrong now too....

To cut an engine raw-water intake hose in a water-ingress emergency and re-direct it to the bilge?? (at least until the impeller jams with debris)

I believe Tony Soprano had a few on his boat.

Better have both. Sawzall doesn't work very well underwater...

Geez, I only have spare blades, not a whole spare hacksaw.

I now feel under-prepared!
