Coddy Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 If you buy a plastic ready made measure, make sure it has all the up to date minimum sizes on it as I hate to see someone waste money on old stock! You could always make one out of wood and put your own markings on it, it would float as well if it fell overboard Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
