I never thought of a drouge, but I like the idea. I don't like the idea of 50 ft. of line. My mind sees that getting wrapped, and especially in the dark on the prop. The MOB pole on Frolic was attatched to the stern pulpit, and the pvc pipe was only deep enough to reach the float. It was easily removed from it's nest. Basically a flick of the wrist, and it was gone.

Imagine has a strobe that will right itself, and turn itself on too. The P.O. had 50ft. of line attatched to the float, and I removed it. What am I missing here? I worry that 50ft. of line could get caught in the prop. Also my thinking is if it is attached to the float with only 3 ft. of line the person will find both the strobe, and float together. Not just swimming for the strobe. My concern is having the strength to pull the float to you, and or finding the float?......i2f
