The local Grange can be your friend

On s/v Letitgo the local Grange (farm supply store) is proving to be a great chandler:

On our recent cruise, I was confronted to the need to get sea water onboard. Not to refresh or clean the blood from the fish we caught yet though…. The bucket we had onboard are not up to the task, handle with let go under the weight, they are hard and scratch the side. This is when on the back of my small brain, I remember reading a few years back about horse feeding bucket. A little research brought us to our local equestrian shop and the wonder of the rubber bucket.

Sturdy but at the same time flexible to avoid scratches, flat on one side to easily bring it back onboard. The ideal boat bucket.
