    Yes, it works

    Be sure to pruchase it with the with the weighted base if it is not going to be perminently mounted.

    It is expensive, but the Pelicans do not visit my boat anymore.

    I bought this to keep ducks off the back of my boat. In the first week of use, at least one time, it did not keep the ducks away - like to use my boat as a bathroom - ugh. I built my own mounting stand - the one recommended is priced way too high. I do not recommend this item.

            Works well to keep birds (and their messes) off the boat cover or hoist cover. Nuts and bolts supplied with unit are not long enough to mount unit to weight pad supplied.

                      Seagulls used my boatlift canopy for roosting creating an unsightly and smelly mess. Repelabird did such a good job on the back half that I bought another one for the front half.

                          How is the repel-a-bird mounted if it is to be mounted permanently? I can see how it would work with the sandbag weighting it down, but how does it work to mount permanently?
