Down here in Fl. I see folks stringing thin Mono line line between high and low points and pulling it tight. I don't know if the "singing" of the tight line keeps them away or just the idea that they fly into it once and don't come back...

Trashed...
And this was only about 4 days. Also, high and dry which is sad.  I strapped the Bird-B-Gone to the bow this evening, and cut some pvc that fits in the aft rodholders with mono-filament strung tight to the bow above the side decks. Guess we'll see...

That's hard to look at
Use your bimini top. Place it upright, but not unraveled. Use heavy mono (100-200lbs) to secure it to the bow and stern cleats to create the "spiderweb" to keep the birds out. Also tie 3 or 4 plastic bags along the bimini to discourage birds from roostering. On the 101' yacht I run, while in New Jersey for the summer, we must rig a suspended plastic owl and a spiderweb of mono over the hardtop, otherwise we wake to a terrible mess every morning. But when "Hootie" and his monofiliment friends are on patrol, never a problem. What I've found with the owls is they must be suspended and move/bounce around. Just stapping an owl to a mast doesn't work, it must be deployed in a manner where it has some movement. Then the other birds stay away. Good luck. Lloyd
