If you are not good at holding your breath and working under water then
you
should be extra careful to avoid wrapping a line. It would also be a good
idea to avoid such practice in the winter time, unless you live in Florida
or a similar place that has warm water.

I've never needed to hold my breath, or used a mask when working on an
outboard, or I/O. I've changed many props and cut away my share of line/rope
very easily without ever "going under". I've even did a few from a ski tube.

Now the inboard ski boat...that's a different story...
