Adam F Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Camira, Most of us use the system without the triangle. This just stops the bouy from dissapreaing under the bow, but with a little manourvering this can be avoided anyway - shame you missed the boat training day, we covered this. My advice would be to go for one of the Stainless Steve / Pete or the DP Marine products. Buy a cheap buoy from a chandlers and away you go.

You will still have to provide your own bouy and shackles etc. Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
