I'm with Tim on this, constant puddle in the locker. I have some Dri-Deck sitting around I'll put down there the next time I have all the rode out. (The last time was in Desolation Sound, when I wanted to get the twists out of the system. 300 feet of line and 100 feet of chain with a Delta 35 is a lot to pull back up, glad I have a windlass. Glad I had 500 feet of water to play in...)
