I was wonder if the 1/4" Spectra/Technora could be increase in the area normally under the clutch by inserting a section of 1/4" as a core or a cover, seized or using some splicing tricks. Steve s/v Good Intentions That's a pretty common thing for a rigger to do to increase the diameter. Clutches hold better on larger diameter rope, even of the same model clutch.
