Anyway, here's a snap of Yo Ho's business end. I'm waiting for the
shrinkwrap guy to show up this week. Wrapping the exhaust after the
motor drains is part of the winterizing process. I've got to spend a few
minutes removing the rust from the prop and repainting it. One of these
days I'll find a prop paint that actually stays on the blade tips. :)

Your wife is getting pretty good. I see the mud and sand in the shallow
areas of BP marina have done their work on your propeller. Maybe some day
they'll dredge that place again.

Anyway, as usual that Canon is doing a fine job. The propeller cover is
almost in perfect focus.

Let's see. You've never seen me launch or retrieve my boat, so you
obviously are not away that I do not power the boat onto the trailer.
You've never seen or met my wife, yet you comment about her. You think
the photo I posted today was taken with a Canon camera. You're wrong
about that, too.

No wonder we got our asses kicked in Vietnam. Officers like you were too
stupid to lead.

Who said anything about powering a boat onto the trailer? I said Breezy
Point Marina was shallow.

You posted pictures allegedly taken by your wife. I've commented about the
quality of her photography as compared to yours. She seems to have a feel
for it, which you seem to lack.

If I were you, I'd blame the photo you posted today on a cheap Canon.

I never said I was as smart as Kerry!

"away that I do not power the boat"..

Painting your prop? What purpose would that serve? Do you want it to
be pretty until you hit bottom again?

What does Karen charge for storage on her property?

Why paint a stainless prop? Surface rust on 304 SS is normal ... if
you don't boat a lot. It really isn't hurting anything. If I am out of
town for a few weeks and not boating I see a little on mine. It buffs
right off after an hour or so of running

Yeah, it does come right off while running. I never gave it much
thought. But I'll still clean it off and coat the prop before the
shrinkwrapper arrives.

You don't want the "shrinkwarpper" to know you don't use your boat?

Actually, coating stainless promotes rust. Stainless loses it's rust
resistant properties when deprived of oxygen.



Hmmm. Okay...I'll clean it off and not coat it!

I guess that is why I have never seen people paint their SS props. Most
people are smart enough not to paint them. I am glad you learned
something in this post. You get to do your normal trolling (the real
reason you come here) and you inadvertently actually learned something.
