    Correct.

    The reports from the people who deployed sea anchors in that Caribbean 1500
    were that the trip lines failed to work. Several identical cases. Maybe
    the manufacturer - I think it was Para-Tech - has improved them. Or not.

    As I said, plan on this being a single-use item.
