I asked my 10 year old to pull my brand new Masterline rope in after a set last week. First time using this rope. Well he pulled it in, but he rather than leave it lying on the floorboard behind the motorbox, he just pulled it in and left it in the water on the starboard side of the boat. "Get the rope in buddy?" I ask. "Yup". 10 seconds later, my prop and shaft looked just like that one.
