Default What's My Line?

Yeah.. it's too low to do any good... I don't think I've ever seen that
arrangement... certainly not in any marina in the west. Even boats that sit
unused for years have fenders tied to them not the dock.

Strange looking placement for a fender. Why is it tied to the dock? The

it's tied looks like they're meant to stay. Odd.


Yeah and it's usless there. I did notice a shackle CF set-up. Also you
should splice your lines Rob. That Bowland is going to rubb your
gel-coat deck raw. Also you need to have your new sail cut above the
bow rail.

Thanks, Joe....those lines did need adjustment. Now set for 3/4 - 1
inch of deflection at centerpoint between stanchions.

Still....we're getting new lifelines for next season from the yard.




Why replace them? They look OK now.
