Default What's My Line?

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.

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

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.

On the fender:

It's in a position that functions fine when I come into the slip. It's
supported by the float under the dock and keeps me off the dock when I
come in. Many people here suspend fenders this way because the dock
float makes it work, but the fenders are usually toast by the end of
the season.

On the lifelines:

The white covers are starting to go and they're original. The yard
offered to get me new ones, so why not? I may go with rope instead of
wire.
