Don't give me idea's.

I like it!

I noticed a post but unfortunately missed the boat on replying to it, as that post seems to have disappeared. The above cryptic blank quotes should be enough for Admin and/or those concerned to know which post is being referenced. The comments in that post are irrelevant to this thread and I shall ...

Already you had a crack mate
Do all people who have anchor winch have that problem when the nose dives?

I had thought about wrapping something around the pipe howse to inhibit the water entry, it's just I didn't get around to it.
