Speaking of mudweight adventures,

 

Someone I know very well dropped the mudweight overboard after heaving it a great distance to achieve the correct angle for peak performance and holding capability only to then see the end of said mudweight rope, double braided of course, go sailing over the toe rail of the boat and under the rather less than crystal waters. Oops

 

Three volunteers from the crew then raced to see who could get disrobed fastest to retrieve the thing. Only took about three minutes for success to be announced. Aparently that is ....lol

Not much to worry about in July but this was September.....

Mrs W. HAS PREVIOUS FOR THIS, "THROW IN THE MUDWEIGHT" SAYS I.

 

AND SHE DID ROPE AN ALL - "Well you didn't say hold onto the rope" she says!!!!!!!!!!

 

Really!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must admit while preparing to reverse onto a stern on Mooring, I threw the mud weight over the bow .... to see the loop unhook itself off the cleat... however, since the rope floats it was just a case of grab the boat hook and pull it back in..
