I used to use split rings to reduce sail wear. The yard rigger who is pretty knowledgeable replaced them all when he tuned the rig, claiming that cotter pins are best. Don't know if it is truth or historical lore but I have stayed with the pins since then. Charlie Nelson Water Phantom C&C 36 XL/kcb cenel...@aol.com

I found nothing in my policy stating this detail. Anyone else ever hear of this?
