Well that's 2-0 to me, they come in a pair and are used for hanging up your waders or boots, to air them. I used to be a ghillie before retirement and used these every day. You can imagine the smell of rubber footed waders when you are in them 6 days a week.

Use to wear them when I was fishing but last pair had to be cut off my calf because it swelled up to much and I got a blood clot now I am not allowed to wear again so have fun but be very careful .

I can’t remember if the label in the Electrolux gives the power and wattage, the later Dometic fridges do

[Mr Plodd]

Something to fit around a rope that will cut the rope if a force is applied at a certain angle (downwards against that serious blade)?

O Clive is close, but Mr Plodd is the nearest. Not a helicopter as far as I know.

No I wouldn't let them on, esp BIG Americans, 250 lbs ( almost 18 stone) they get put on a boat. . Due to the fact they would not get out of the emergency exit windows
