I have two 9 foot pieces of 8 inch pipe. Anyone have any good suggestions on what to do with it. I though maybe bolt it onto my trailer next to my cat box, and get two caps. Then I can store my main sail in it, free from wearing against anything in the cat box. Although I do use a sail bag. Any ideas, be creative?

you could mount them under the boat, fill the back end and use them as pumpkin shooters. Should be helpful at the next regatta

Take the pipe and the rest of the crap in your yard to the dump! |

What crap, beyond the small pine tree its not my yard, the only crap in my yard is the fishing pole, tackle box, rope locker and the bungee. Can I get some specks on the pumpkin shooter, do they make 8 inch bowling balls? lol Also why would I split the shipping. If I want it gone ill put on the free section on CL, but if I don't use it on my Hobie it has great hydroponic potential. |

I use two 8" pipes for sail storage with some test caps for the storage. I had to get a new cap recently they were a bit pricey ~ $80 each. Pretty good for storage but not much room for anything other than sails and the boom, tiller extension and some line. Not as glamourous as a "Lunch Box" but will do. Kent |

I just used a slice of 6" PVC for a rear mast support. Cut out the contour of the rear cross bar on the bottom, and a V shape to hold the mast on the top. Pumpkin shooters would be fun too. Chad |
