I am a bit concerned about sucking a bag or something up my raw water intakes into the cooling system and blocking it, overheating the engines and probably providing me with the sort of bill I can frame and show my grandchildren...
At SBS I say a gizmo on the Halyard stand that was an exhaust temp sensor and was sorely tempted as it did seem like a good idea but it will probably work out to be a £500 or £600 investment.
Already got ropecutters, seen 2 knot drop in top end and not sure how much change in fuel efficiency....is this just another bit of kit for the paranoid or a worthy investment???
Spoke to my insurers and they said 'oh yeah mate if it is an accident then you're covered for engine repairs'...nothing explicit in the policy handbook and - as I work in insurance - I know that if there is a way to avoid paying, they will.
Cheers
