My plug is in 99% of the time. I only put the speed transducer in when I want to use it or it gets clogged up in a week ☹ Pulling them in and out is a routine thing, they were made to do this. Joe Coquina C&C 35 MK I

I got about 4 or 5 cups of water out but nothing severe. The wheel was full of baby muscles. I cleaned it out, gave it a spin and got all my data! Working and AOK! :) thanks everyone for the feedback and tips!

But like I said, mine is an old 34 year Signet but it works fine when the padwheel is clean of any debris.
