[C320-list] Bird Problem

[David J Cardoza]

Not sure where you're from but almost everyone where we keep our boat on
Buzzards Bay on Cape Cod has trip lines wired across about 3 to 5 inches
above our spreaders. It's very effective.

Joe I don't know whether your gulls are more agressive than the ones we
have in Sydney but I bought a plastic owl and slung it up on the
spinnaker topping lift so that it hangs midway between the mast and the
pulpit--it seems to work OK. There is another 320 moored out a couple of
hundred yards away with the same type of owl sitting on pushpit rail
together with old CDs strung on lines from bow to stern
