I dont wanna scrape my prop
I dont sail in the summer. It is basically hot with nearly no wind
except during thunderstorms. So, the boat sits in that canal all summer with nothing to do except to grow barnacles on the prop, THEN, wehn I do decide to use her, I have to go into that nasty water to defoul the prop. Although right now I foolishly think I am imperviouis to anything in the water, that will not always be true. However, today I found that when I finally turned my boat so her stern is to the dock, I can easily see my prop and could reach it with the boat hook......... Why not get a plastic bag with a draw string, use boat hook to pull it over the prop and then pull the drawstring? When I want to sail, I simply tie a Sawzall blade to the boathook and rip the bag off. Thoushts? (see, I am still dehydrated from being on that dock today) |
