If you were half as observant as you are critical you would have noticed
that my halyards are wire and rope. The 'anchor line' halyards are three-
strand Dacron for easy eye splicing. They are primarily for wrapping
around the winches as wire tends to be hard on the winch barrels.

Webbing in place of shackles on the sails? Since when do sails have
shackles? Did you mean cringles per chance? Did you not notice the
webbing fastens the reefing point cringles to the sail?

As for my catch, I prefer to kick junk fish right back off the deck
into the water before they stink up the joint.

I hope this helps.

A good fisherman would have a place to store his catch. There isn't
room on your foredeck for a minnow much less a fish. I wasn't going to
mention it before but your Hong Hong sails look pretty cheap with those
webbings in place of shackles but they do go well with the rest of your
rigging. I just love those anchor lines for halyards. However, I do
think the boat is perfect for you.
