What does this have to do with a winch handle?

Is anyone surprised that binary billspit thinks winch handles
are
made
by the boat builder?


EVERY builder does this. The difference is the price point they are
working towards, and the overall level of quality they need in the
final product to make it sell at that price.

C&C was not trying to make the cheapest possible boat for the
uninformed, unsophisticated, first-time buyer, as Siedlemann was.

Nothing. I just like to put down the boat you sail. Makes me feel
better.

There are several solutions. We typically coil the line around an
unused
winch

but what if the line fell off the winch and into the water, then, when
you start your engine??????

It's certainly a possibility, but it's more likely that it would come
off the handle don't you think?

Maybe he ment that it was a cheap winch handle. :-)

Did you ever get out of the site of land?

No. Had to scrap that plan. Maybe next year.


Oh boy. Scotty Potti not only has a glass house, but the stones as well.

do you honestly think that coil is going to 'jump' over the winch
handle?

By itself no. But, if the handle lock suddenly gave it up, it would
go in the water, right?

Well, yeah also if an Albatross swooped down and picked up the end and
threw it in the water.....about the same thing.

Hope we didn't break it:^)

Yes Dad. I just realized it when I was closing up the boat and
couldn't get it out. It was raining so I didn't mess with it.

I'll still leave it in while sailing.
