My 25 has a 9.9 on a transom bracket. My furling line is long enough to get sucked into the prop when I am setting sail and have my eyes in 10 different places while going through my mooring field. I have it led into the spool so it is just long enough to allow the jib to be unfurled but there is an excess that I have to keep my eye on. I got it wrapped in the prop and had to fend off moored boats while I anchored and pulled the prop to free the line.
What is the best way to deal with the line? I have a cleat just past the winch. A place to stow the line would be great, without anything protruding into the cockpit or having to cut into the boat.
