Key Features
- If you’ve ever spent time on a serious Sportfisherman or a “Battlewagon”, you probably noticed that the buckets used on board had their wire handles removed and replaced with a piece of dock line
- There are several reasons for this
- The wire handles rust, they rattle and they can also scratch the big buck paint job or gel coat finishes on the boat
- Some crews like to hang them from the fighting chair for various reasons and the wire handle doesn’t allow this
