We ended up going with uncovered 7x19 wire with adjustable pelican hooks placed
at each end. We do not normally get to tie up on long (enough) docks where we
are in Florida, so we can unhook bow or stern and put enough slack in anywhere
along the side of the boat to make getting on & off the boat easy.The tube type
turnbuckles on our previous covered lifelines had gotten so corroded from
crevice corrosion that I actually broke the end off one of them trying to
realease the locking nut.Just my $.02 worth,Bruce Whitmore1994 C&C 37/40+
