... Capt. JG wrote but didn't bother to erase the copy of everything I originally wrote so I almost missed his question way, way, down at the bottom: Where did you get the knife portion? The link is on the web page but here it is repeated: http://captnhooksolutions.com/ Nice unit. Looks like it would be good for repelling borders as well. I haven't used it for pot warps yet since my other method works so well but it did a great job of pulling a bunch of weed off the prop that dropped my speed to 3 knots. I did this from the dock but it still would have been hard with any other tool I can think of. The situation I wane to have the knife on board for is snagging a pot close to a lee shore or obstruction where I need to get the boat sailing and under control within seconds of clearing it. Even after clearing a pot warp, I don't like to start the engine until I've turned it a few times in both forward and reverse with the throttle closed so it can't start. All the pots I've snagged have been fouled with others so there could always be a second still around the shaft waiting to be wound into an unpenetratable blob by the spinning prop. -- Roger Long Ah... missed it... thanks! -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
