George Maynard edited this page May 3, 2024 · 11 revisions

These checklists are designed to provide a list of recommended materials and tools needed to install an eMOLT system on a commercial fishing vessel. Not all materials and tools are necessary in all installations because every vessel is different. If you run into a scenario where you need additional tools or materials not covered by this checklist, please let us know so we can make the list more comprehensive
