Well it finally happened to me. I sucked up a rope today. We had just got done tubing and decided to wakeboard for a bit. While my wife was in the water, my typical rope watcher and spotter abandoned his post to put on more sunscreen. He left my sister watching the rope and needless to say she didnt understand the importance of staying alert of where the rope was while we were stopped. When we took off the rope cinched up tight and her hand got caught between the rope and the boat.
Luckily from the information I have gained on here I recognized what had happened and killed the engines and grabbed my knife and cut the rope to free her hand.
Then we spent the next hour and a half cutting rope out of the impeller shaft. Luckily my wife has small hands and was able to cut inside the cleanout port easier than I was.
