Fouled Mid Channel
      15/06/2006 20:44

Not a breath of wind, so motoring back from St PP to Poole the prop was fouled by a large heavy duty plastic bag.
Had to don wetsuit and snorkeling gear and go under to clear it.
I am also a diver so it was no problem. What do others do if they are not equipped for DIY?

--------------------
Beating is sailing for twice the distance at half the speed and three times the discomfort.
