A cover for a welding wire container has a body portion provided with an elongate slot through which the welding wire can be withdrawn from the container, and at least one flap formed integrally therewith and partially defining the slot. A received stream of NALs from a plurality of endpoints can be processed by an exemplary NAL Processor Module and be arranged into a stream of NALs that are referred to in this disclosure as organized NALs. A microprocessor of the SAS expander identifies faulty communications on one of the SAS links, based on the fault detection parameters, and disables a corresponding one of the SAS PHYs coupled to the SAS link on which the microprocessor identified the faulty communications. The resultant hull is substantially wider than the cabin, providing substantial ocean-going stability for the craft. If the \u201cbeacon non-receipt\u201d indicating information is not detected, the method does not perform a PNC appropriation operation. The pair of armrests forms a base for mounting the backrest and the footer via corresponding mounting hardware and mounting slots.
