I'm sorry to mislead you Dave...... but Nicks absolutely absolutely correct in that Oxygen is the answer I had im mind.
To quote...." Corrosion resistance can however be adversely effected if the component is used in a non-oxygentaed environment, typical example being underwater keel-bolts buried in timber..chromium oxide is the invisible passivation layer that is formed when exposed to oxygen that keeps the lustrous and rust free look ".
I had a feeling the answer was just to obvious for you Dave... hey.... I am a simple man.

I was a little confused with that question. I wasnt sure whether you were asking the content of SS or what needs to be there to make it rust.

Dave,
Good to see you include your mexican mates!
VSBC could stand for:
Victorian
Sexy
Boatowners
Club.
But if I was a betting man I think the answer you were looking for was:
Victorian Speedboat Club.
BTW. The Whisky skiff answer was better than my answer.

Hey Dave..... no offence to Darren....but when I wrote "keep it simple" I meant keep the answer simple to the question....ie. dont think too deeply about it.... although I was going to have a go at your so called "simple question" and say ...Victorian Ski Boat Club????
As I said I'm a simple man
