Touche' has two piece spinnaker sheets. I had Layline "stuff" 1/4 inch Dyneema
into a length of StaSet. The StaSet is easy on the hads and works well on the
winches while the Dyneema is light and strong for the active part of the sheet.
The joined portion is located such that it is on the winch.
You can get two piece halyards also.
Apsltd offers same thing as "core to core" splicing for $38. scroll to the
bottom of this page:

of the discussions about using high tech line for halyards over the
years, there is one solution to the problem of the "hand" of the
thinner lines that I don't recall being suggested. Why not use ordinary
half inch or larger spliced polyester tails similar to the way that
wire and polyester are spliced? That sort of splice is beyond my knowledge
or skill, as is the wire to polyester splice for that matter, but there must be
people who know how. It may not be possible for every combination, but there
must be some products that are compatible. This combination would also
solve some of the wear problems associated with the high tech lines, since
the larger diameter polyester tails are quite durable and can be sized to
be of adequate strength long after they get soft and fuzzy.
