We are about to haul out for a bottom job, and some maint. work on the shaft / replace the PSS bellows.
Anyone have an experience with the disk-shaped Shaft Shark or perhaps the Spurs line cutters?
Those crab pot floats are mighty hard to see anytime and invisible at night when we are transiting the Washington coast.
Luck has gotten me by for a couple decades, but a friend got towed in last summer with a piece of line/netting caught in his prop. And, he's not the only victim over the years that I know of.
Since our boat will be out of the water for a week anyway, this would be a good time to address this concern.
Your experiences?
Thanks,
