I've had two spectra halyards fail. //// Another good point is you can easily stow a length of line and make up a new stay in a couple of hours. For me, any cruise would demand a length of shroud material that could be remade within reasonable time: galvanized, stainless, presumably synthetic? But steel with patent terminals, or swaged ferrule hard eye ends have their appeal to simplicity. Brian W |
