"Capt. Mooron" wrote in message ... .... Do you inspect your pins for wear? I generally replace mine annually if feasible. You mean cotter pins, not clevis pins, I assume. The odd thing about cotter pins in turnbuckles is that they actually aren't needed as long as there's some tension on the stay. Not that I recommend going for extended periods without pins, but leaving them out while tuning the rig isn't a problem. If a turnbuckle is trying to "unwind" you have a problem. |

A poor effort, Bob, considering I just posted two pics of me sailing and went on to discuss conditions in my local area. Didn't create much dialogue, now did it? Hmmm. Wonder why? That's easy. Everybody believed him!!! Regards Donal -- |

Hmmm. Wonder why? That's easy. Everybody believed him!!! Believed him? What does that have to do with sailing discussion here? I actually post pics of my boat sailing far more often than anyone here. I didn't post for most of last summer, yet the rest of you were all very busy here. Hmmmm. RB |

What's also unbelievable is that he and his crew of waifs and strays are so terrified of it, they wait until the wind drops to 2 knots before they'll risk it. -- Wally www.forthsailing.com www.wally.myby.co.uk |

That wasn't 'flying', that was 'hanging limply and looking sorry for
itself'. Two knots! Still waiting for a pic of your spin. I sure hope you have one. I'm off for a sail, but I'll be back later to see your spin. RB |
