My first "real" sailboat was a very battered wooden Flying Dutchman when I was about 14 or 15. Two friends and I pooled our money to buy it for $150. We didn't have much of a budget, and some of the rotten running rigging, out of necessity, was replaced with clothesline! If you are familiar with the FD, it was known as a spaghetti factory. There were piles of clothesline everywhere. Not easy to tell which was what. It sure was fun, though.

Agree 100%. It is a lot easier to ask the non-regular crew to haul in the green line on the starboard winch than to ask them to haul in one of the five white ones..... We are well color-coded on Penniless.
