    I have a line cutter (Prop Protector), but it did not sever the soft nylon
    line like it does to standard pot warp. The nylon appeared to simply
    stretch and unravel, allowing it to get between the blades and the hub. I
    don't know how I picked up nylon line; normally it would sink and not be in
    a position to foul the prop. It must have been attached to a pot line.
