Yes.... it seems they have quite a sag to them. No doubt they have been
either adjusted to their maximum available tension... which has become
insufficient due to their age.... or it's a case of blatant disregard for
the safety of those aboard by not attending to ship's duties and basic
upkeep.

Maybe he can't see out of those rounded and tinted ports to see the
condition of his lifelines? In due consideration.... the foredeck of the
35s5 is not the most ergonomic or person friendly location on the vessel.
Maybe Bobsprit has not ventured beyond the cockpit due to a fear of slipping
off those raked coamings? :-)

Whats with the lifelines?

The lifelines are there Joe..... just hard to see in that

sails though... don't look like Mylar.
