[Rhodes22-list] Inflatable Dingy-inflator

[Jim White]

We use a 12V rechargeable high volume inflator to handle the inflation of 
the dingy aboard Le Menagerie. We charge it up at home (or at the dock when 
on shore power). Lasts a long time, haven't run it down yet. Bought it at 
Academy for something like 16 bucks....
