What I do know, is how to use the cell phone. That would be probably between my first or first and 1/2 option if I got in a bind.
    I spun my prop last year. Glad I had an extra case of water took me 3 1/2 hours to get back in the mildde of July. Sucked big time!!

    Better yet have a spare prop. Even if its not the perfect prop. Be sure to have the wrenches also. I learned this last year. If you have to have the prop worked on you may need something to get you by until its ready.

    I'll ask you. Do they work? I could have sworn I saw a Prop-Aid patch on your fancy pink Columbia shirt. Hmmmmm
    I carry a spare but this gadget looks good! Thanks

    Spun Prop and Prop-Aid

    There was a post on TOB about someone spinning their prop between the jetties and being in harms way. Mike in Friendswood rescued them with a tow to the yacht basin.
    Everyone should have a Prop-Aid. Ask Louie Baumann if they really work.
Working...
