Active Captain quote - From the 5 years, 50% of the boats I cut free had cutters. Spurs were the most common that I came across. There are different conclusions you can come to from those findings - either cutters don't do anything or they give the pilot a false sense of security and they are then more careless.


You seem to be implying that they're worthless. Isn't the likelihood that they sometimes actually worked as advertised, and you didn't get called to cut them free?

Should I not add them then?

Sometimes we don't know what we don't know.
