 Bow rope storage
Ok May be a detail but " does anyone have a good way to store a bow rope" while motoring. I need a 20' rope as when I launch on my own. I tie the rope to the back part of the bunk and let the boat float off the trailer. Then when I get in a don't want to disconnect the rope but need a good way to keep it from flopping around. Any answers .

 Re: Bow rope storage
If you have a troll motor bracket tuck it under there. That's what I do.

 Re: Bow rope storage
Put a pop-up cleat on the bow. Then you can undo it and stow it in a hatch while underway.

 Re: Bow rope storage
Tie a bowline through the eye on the bow. It won't cinch tight and can be untie in no time.

 Re: Bow rope storage
Ok guys sorry to offend everyone. I guess I'm the only one that has had branches and weeds pull the rope out of the boat while crashing through timber in the dark. Then it sucks when the rope gets wrapped up on the shit and jerks the boat to a stop. Or maybe you bitches are havin menopause. Fuk give it a break dumbass coonass

 Re: Bow rope storage
No wonder this country is goin to crap some of us can't figure out where or how to keep a rope from being pulled into the water. I am now a little dumber since clicking on a thread. Boat ownership is overwhelming at times I guess

 Re: Bow rope storage
That is some funny shit. Wonder if he knew which way to turn it once he got the right size socket? That would be a good motor to see how long they can run without an oil change.
