When we hauled out, the suspense was high to see what would be on the shaft and we were so fortunate - not a single bit of line. <br /><br />It would be nice if there was a designated fishing area for crab pots. I know the fisherman are just trying to make a living, but the cost of repairs to the boat can be significant and the crab pots are damaged as well. Surely, there is a better way than the gamble that everyone is taking.<br /><br />Also...I think the black/dark floats are just ridiculous - really - why would anyone make that choice?<br /><br />Can you tell I have put a lot of thought into this? <br /><br />Thanks for the comment!

They litter the lake where we sail and I worry constantly about them. I've gone as far as considering installing a line cutter on the prop. <br /><br />Glad you both made it in alright.Tatehttp://sundownersailsagain.comnoreply@blogger.com
