Chris,
I did the lifelines on my boat with dyneema (Amsteel) and fittings from
CS Johnson. Look on page 29 of their catalogue for the fittings and
kits. www.csjohnson.com

The surveyor when I bought the boat said I could replace the standing
rigging myself one wire at a time. Of course I had a lot of gusto when
I first purchased her and balls to hoist atop and unclip 37 year old
standing rigging. Today I have the phone number of a rigger who was
recommended to inspect my original rig and lifelines, expecting a
hefty price tag I am keen on the idea of at least doing the lifelines
myself. Digging around I found these hand-crimping lifeline fittings
from Bosun
http://www.bosunsupplies.com/Lifeline-Fittings-Hand-Crimp/ anyone had
any experience replacing their lifelines and any lessons they could
pass on? I’m sure having the rigging replaced could mean a deal on the
lifelines, but wanted to explore my options.
