Hello I have been looking at grp canal cruisers and I have a question about which engine configuration is best. I have seen two boats for sale same model but one is a diesel shaft drive inboard whilst the other is an outboard. Initially I was drawn towards the inboard engine but then it struck me what do you do about things caught around the propeller. There is no weed hatch on the inboard so how do you clear the propeller when the worst happens and secondly how often does this happen?
Thanks
