I am happy to b e able to amaze and annoy you. However, I want a
dinghy I can row so an inflatable wont work.
The purpose of the short cable seemed to be in lieu of a topping lift
but as the boat has ALWAYS had a topping lift I am not sure why it is
really there unless it is there for when the topping lift fails. Once
I did use it in place of the topping lift when I had just re-stepped my
mast aftyer about a years sailing hiatus. For about 15 minutes I just
couldnt figger out why my main wouldnt trim properly and then I
remembered I had not disconnected this thing. Its more trouble than
its worth.


You just said it better than I did.

You don't annoy me, I wouldn't read your posts if they did.

Picturing you swinging from the toping lift while trying to steer is too
bazaar for words.
