The hatch on this slab has an automatic closer on it which is OK except that it has gotten a little old and doesn't quite close the door so we gave it aittle help with a bungee cord.
I guess the bungee cord has gotten a little weak because today I noticed that it was not closing the door to the point of where it would latch. It lacked about a 32nd of an inch of making the door latch.
My shipmate offered to clean the pump house if I fixed the door.
Best deal I've had in ages.
I simply tied a knot in the bungee cord. It made it a little shorter and it now had enough pull on it to do the job.
Of course, my shipmate wasn't too impressed.
"I could have done that," he said.
"Why didn't you?" I asked.
Sometimes it doesn't take a whole lot to rectify a situation.
