    Pump themed anchor

    I guess the one thing worse than pulling up your anchor is not pulling up your anchor I mostly got rocks and weeds and I use a light grapple so if it gets stuck just give it a pull and the hook straightens out . 😁😁 What sort of anchor do you favour Scott ?😆😁

    Pump themed anchor

    I like it ! Work themed ,shiney ,home built ,unique and a bit cool too. That would work ,sometimes when fishing over sand or gravel I move the boat by just dragging the anchor.......it would be ideal for that

    Nobody fishing?

    Your Best Technique for Rope Starting Merc 20hp EFI

    Yeah , you'd think aye . I wonder if you give it a really good yank (the pull cord ) could you spin it fast enough to deactivate the decompressor before it gets a chance to fire 😁and then hit full compression ,possibly backfire and stop dead 🤔
