Delighted to see your collective success! Well done.
Moral: Bronze plugs, not iron or steel ones.

Pete,

It seems you're back home safely.

A big congratulations on managing to get those plugs out while avoiding disaster!

I hope all is well with you and you're able to get on the water this season.
