Where we keep our boat in FL, in certain times of the year, its idle speed only until your about a mile out in the gulf. It sucks when you have to go over12 mi to get from the yacht club to the gulf at idle speed only!

Did you all know there are prop guards that are reasonably priced that will save both poeple and animals from this horrible fate. Nobody buys them because they slow initial take off slightly. Sorry I will get off my soap box now I just hate to see one more thing hurt by these destructive propellers.
