Jan 9, 2022While few would go back to the days of outdoor fabrics with laces and buttons, zippers and snaps can be frustrating to use when they stick and jam due to dirt and corrosion. And when the material they're attached to has shrunk due to UV exposure, it's doubly difficult. Iosso E-Z Snap – Zipper & Snap Lubricant is the fast and simple way to get plastic and metal fasteners working smoothly.
Made in the USA, Iosso E-Z Snap – Zipper & Snap Lubricant is engineered for outdoor use. The waterproof formula won't dissolve when exposed to rain. Unaffected by temperature, it doesn't dissipate with heat yet remains workable in extreme cold. Non-hazardous, the product doesn't contain solvents, silicone or Teflon. And unlike aerosol products that can stain fabric, the creamy gel only goes where it's needed.
Using E-Z Snap – Zipper & Snap Lubricant is simple. For snaps, a small dollop is used on one side; for zippers, a dab every 8". Then, the fasteners are worked until the product is evenly distributed. The result is easy and smooth operation with decreased chance of tearing the fabric or accidentally ripping the hardware off of it.

Monaco Energy Boats Could Be Heading to Canada
The 10th edition of the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge (MEBC) has wrapped up at the Yacht Club de Monaco (YCM) and it gives a compelling look at the future of electric boating.
The MEBC was started in 2014 as a competition between university teams who built and raced boats powered only by solar power and batteries. To encourage more participation from institutions that may not have naval architecture or boat construction expertise, the YCM introduced the Energy Class competition. The club supplies the student teams with the same one-design catamaran hull, and each team adds their own cockpit and propulsion system that can be powered by any renewable alternative energy sources, not just solar.
