[font "Calibri"]Ihave an item that has been in my dad’s tackle box for over 20 years andI don't have a clue what it is. It looks like it might be homemade but if it ismy dad didn't make it. The only possible use I would guess is somethingto do with a trolling motor. Please let me know if you know what it is.

Thanks,
Phil[/font]
