You and me both. I've been lifted off the deck (thankfully not more than a couple of feet) hoisting the spinny on my boat. That thing must be horrendous.

Mind you, its pulling in the wrong direction ie mainly upwards, and is probably making no material difference to fuel used - or would be if the piccie were not a mock up.
