This may be a statement of the obvious, but does hull design make a particular boat more liable to pick up stray nets and line.
All of the boats I met this summer who had been fouled (see my earlier post) were of bilge keel design.
Just think - a pair of keels doing say 6 knots - just sweep all the debris directly onto the prop and rudder.
If the rudder isn't skeg mounted then you have an even bigger problem.
Just a thought.
