I had what I thought was a bit of Smitherscum on Yo-Ho this week along
the waterline, but it just turned out to be some tannin from the Miles

Here's the fisherman's marina where I typically launch Yo-Ho. It's late
in the season but there still are a couple of hundred trailerboats
there, plus the slipped boats.

I've got some oily scum to dispose of also. I bought one of the large
tubs (not as tall as a 77 liter garbage can but slightly wide) so I
could run my 6 hp at home in the driveway. Now how do I dispose of the
slightly oily water? I might have to but one of those special sponges
you keep in your bilge.
note: I can't use the earmuffs on my outboard because of the intake
position
