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


Please POST where I said it happens all the time.


Sorry I used a figure of speak. Too much for your limited mind. So just how
often do you see good lines parting for no reason?

Please explain to EVERYONE
why people will double up on ground tackle when bad weather approaches.


Primarily because anchors can drag, and single anchors can be upset. Also,
boats draging down on you can chafe a line. Worrying about a line parting in
the middle is real low on the list.

Please
tell us again how cordage NEVER fails inexplicably.


"Never" might be too strong a word. But I will say that in 45 years, I've
never seen a line fail inexplicably. I've seen a few fail for good reason - its
was always chafe, and usually the incompetance of the person show set it up.

No one else seems to be jumping to your defence; no one has come forward to say
it does happen. Yet you claim to have seen it a number of times in your more
limited experiance. I don't think its for me to explain why so many
"inexplicable" things happen to you, booby.

How do you know about my sailing trip next week? We're sailing a Galaxy 32 from
Oyster Bay to a place near Shark River for a furling install, then back to City
Island. Two days aint a "big trip" though maybe for Scotty Potti!

No, you LIED. You claimed that I said happened ALL THE TIME. I never said
anything like that.
Figure of speech? Yeah, sure.
You're busted again.

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE WRONG!!!!!

And no one is dumb enough to say it can't. Not even the companies that make the
line.
Check and mate AGAIN!

inexplicable things...

How far is that in NM?

Two days! Two whole days? at sea?......in a 32'er.......damn bob, you
da man!
That *is* a 'big trip'.
Do you have an EPIRB, a life raft and a well stocked ditch kit?
How much ice will you need to last two whole days?

Scotty
