II Kings,
It could be worse...
Last summer I was out on my boat and a gal friend of mine asked where my sink drained. So I leaned over the side to point to the thru hull, and I grabbed onto one of my Bimini top straps (which didn't work as a grab handle).
I went in the water with a lit ciggy in mouth and a pair of prescription ray ban's on my head. I came back up with the cig in my mouth and the ray ban's at the bottom of the drink! (and the ray bans cost me $375.00)
Congrats on the SilverStar's! Ran them in my last car for three years and they worked great.
