What's a pig stick? I think I need one....lost a windex on my last boat due to a cormorant!
Jackdaw is probably right about this, however, I operate RADAR systems that move constantly. Granted the pedestal is bolted to one spot but the antenna dish rotates and plunges several times a day and birds still nest in them.One other thought Kermie.. (and you probable knew this)...
From a perching perspective these birds are totally creatures of habit. In practical terms if means that they generally pick boats THAT DON"T MOVE, or don't move a lot. The winter off-season and you not sailing a lot probably factored hugely in them picking (on) you!
Sail more! ;^)
this sorta reminds me of an artist rendering of a political campaign
Simply take it down them down to my Laundrymat and it will be returned after a $20 cleaning. If you want to re-s eal it, bring your own bottle ofIf you discover a process or solution that will remove all of the bird crap, please share. I have tried the solutions that are offered by Sunbrella and they have removed much but not all.
I would do that except my bimini has a couple of windows in it for checking sail trim.Simply take it down them down to my Laundrymat and it will be returned after a $20 cleaning.
Well at least at MINE, we might have to charge $10 more for hand cleaning the windowed cover. I have one 80 lb washer on gentle cycle, cold water that would not damage the isinglass if taped over using painters tape to prevent scratching.I would do that except my bimini has a couple of windows in it for checking sail trim.
My best guess is an osprey but another club member thinks great blue heron. I saw the osprey on RobertLangDirect's mast just a few days before.Kermit, Holy Sh/t! Is that from seagulls?
By the way, where can I get a mainsail cover like your's with the Hunter logo?
