Now you're claiming the line parted with no chafe??? Good Grief! And you're
claiming it happens all the time at your marina???


Please POST where I said It Happens all the time.

You the one who said you've seen this happen a number of times.

If it happened mid line
beneath the snubber, please explain to all of us what it was chafing against.

Booby, the breaking strength of a dock line is around 10,000 pounds. There's no
way a properly setup line should encounter this force in a little blow. You've
even said that you expected the blow and checked the lines a few hours before.
If you doubled the lines that should have reduced the stress on any one line.

The only explanation for this is incompetance.

We all eagerly await your answer. I may even forward it to Yale.

I've given my explanation, what's yours?
