Maybe disabling RBF would be a start, and using a high fee.

Yep, that's the solution. It is one-time try only.

This has been bugging me and put me off from searching 66.
Ok so say i found it can i make the fee high enough like in electrum and broadcast it a few minutes before the next block ?
This way i have a few mins to get in next block before the pub key is cracked. Is this possible.?
Otherwise what is the point ?

Your tactic could work, but there is no way to know when the next block happens, it could be 2 minutes, it could be hours. You can play the average block time for sure, but even that is not 100%.

Some claim there is a way around it all, but I'm not sure how.
