@davel501 Misremember
... I am over at Sequoit.
@Devildog is over at Webbs. Never met him, but see is nice blue Yamaha in the corner slip when we head towards the bridge.
@Ronnie - I talked with a guy who has a Yamaha with clean out plugs who has a boat in a marina even further into our weedy channel. He was telling me he too can't get the weeds out of the grates through his clean out plugs. He needs to get in the water also.
I would love to find a rake or make a rake that will work and not scratch or harm the bottom of my boat. Right now, getting in the water and pulling the weeds out is no big deal. So far, each time has been a day when swimming or water sports was the plan for the day. But, there will be nights soon where I want to go up and just go to dinner with my wife. times like that, it would suck to have to get in the water.
Thinking... some garden hose or Shop Vac (run in reverse to blow) "McGyvered" attachment that I could, from the swim platform, reach down and push into the jet nozzle while at dock. Although, that would at its best, do what the reverse trick does. Gets me going, but still would leave dangling attached weeds. A rake just sounds like a bad idea, scratch potential wise.
