: Anybody find a good source one the web for Rare Earth Magnets?

: chris

This company sells epoxy sealed rare earth magnets purported to be salt water proof.

Standard plated rare earth magnets rust and burst if you breath too hard on them.

I use sets of matching magnets, 3/4" X 1/16, 8 per hatch cover and 8 per deck lip (hidden under a veneer).

I have a new, totally watertight hatch design, for rare earth magnets.

I detail it's construction in my new kayak instruction book.
