Recently replaced my old lifelines with Amsteel and really like them. CS
Johnson has a new style of fitting that is very nice,

Did all the splices myself following the Samson recommendations and am very
pleased with the result.

Subject: Stus-List Dyneema lifelines -- was Re: Swageless lifeline system
Anyone try dynemma for lifelines?
I found at least one source for lifeline hardware with eye ends for high
tech line.

Seems like it would be easy to install and replace as needed.
But would there be other issues?
Chafe on sails?
Chafe at stantions?
Hard to adjust length?
My lifelines will need a replacement in the next year or 2. At minimum.
Not sure where I would get new swaged lifelines locally.
Thoughts?
Mark
