I was today years old when I figured out what coffee canisters were xD
😆
Yeah, like today, where I'm moored, my boat sways dramatically every time another boater passes by. People do not slow down and tick over as they are supposed to. If I had glass ones they would have shattered a long time ago.
ps. this is totally out of this conversation, but...
in case you are curiuos? yesterday I've read about one of the three greatest nuclear disasters in USSR; an explosion at the soviet nuclear submarine in Chazhma Bay (near Vladivostok) in 1985 occurred during a planned upgrade and repair works of its nuclear reactor. You have the right to laugh at this, yes... Everything was going smoothly, but during this operation (I’ll simplify the plot a little) a high-speed boat sailed along the bay, and the wave from its passage slightly rocked the submarine at that very short moment when the technicians were doing a certain operation, installing the rods... it could not tolerate even a minimal deviation - but due to the shock, the moderating rods were slightly bent, and due to that technicians could not put them in place, and due to that the reactor quickly overheated -> following the nuclear explosion. Everything was kept top-secret, this is actually a very tragic story. This is what sometimes happens when another ship passes you on the water. 😳
Oh, no! That's sad to hear.
Where I'm moored right now, I get slammed about every time a boat goes by because they are not slowing down and going at tick over as they should. It can be annoying.
Yes, I understand that. Annoying to the degree you can not get used to it, right?.. it is not like some sound or a color which at some point became a slight background. This slamming is another deal... let me send you a little consolative !BEER 🐈
This banging is the worst it has ever been. I'll only be here for a few more days before moving on though.
Thanks for the beer:)))

Hey @millycf1976, here is a little bit of BEER from @qwerrie for you. Enjoy it!

Plastic is more superior when it comes to high humidity conditions, like a life on the water etc. Right? When we obtained some gear for travelling, we got some plastic plates and cups and still keep them. In travelling conditions they are much more practical than glass / ceramic ones.
Plastic canisters are only good because it can't break. That's the number one deciding factor for me now.
There's little to no storage available, so if these fall off the shelf, then it's no problem :)
