RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] ID this picture?



As I recall Harold has the buoy secured by shock cord. There is a shaft
through the hull with a little rectangular bar on it, and the shock cord
is threaded through grooves on the ends of that bar in such a way that
when he twists the shaft, the shock cord escapes and the buoy floats
free. The buoy is wrapped in a poly line that unravells as the buoy
rises. When I wanted to put a marker buoy on Snoopy, I remembered
Harold's principle of operation but could not recall exactly what shape
those grooves had on the ends of the bar, so I simply put a thread on
the outboard end of the shaft to unscrew the buoy from inside.

How is this released?

Looking at the picture, you see it well secured for road transport. Just
below the buoy itself, you see a short line going to what looks like a
strap around the hull. Is there a release mechanism down under the
hull?...and how is it actuated?
