Hmmm. A couple of days ago, Ralph was advising keeping your tent poles
with aluminium ferrules in a waterproof bag to prevent corrosion from sea
water and sea air. Now folks are putting aluminum footpeg rails in. 
Actually, I think prijon boats come with them. I don't know much about
aluminum, but is there an inconsistency here?
