Hi,
If you go with wire, you can save a ton of money by buying from a cable and
chain vendor. I replaced my lifelines 4 years ago. I purchased suncor quick
attach hardware from Defender and wire from Quality Chain & Cable. I paid
$.95/ft for 3/16 -5/16 7x7 Type 316 PVC Coated Lifeline (Defen

I replace lifelines for my clients. I've used both of the hand swage tools, the
big handle swagger and the smaller one with the hex bolts. For the former you
use 3 swages; the later 5 to get the strength required.
You can find the big tool on eBay. However, be advised many of them are from

I'd pull em both, proceed to warranty, play dumb, say as little as possible and
hope they replace them without a fuss. They may want to prorate
Lots of folks take boats from STL down river and through the Gulf.
Some even do the loop, but it's harder with a sailboat; too many low bridges.
OTOH, going up the Illinois from STL is against the current and takes a lot of
time. When our folks race on Lake Michigan they take boats by trailer.

I wonder how much would it cost to have it trucked to Lake Michigan or to the

Seems like a long way from navigable waterways.

It isn't more difficult; though I do it outside of the stay; much more sheeting
involved (two boat length vs. one)

I re-did my lifelines a few years ago with a kit from

I may have ordered it through Defender, but you can also buy direct from
them now.
I also have one of their mooring "Grab & Go devices, and LOVE it. The
Admiral is also a big fan. :-)

Thanks for the suggestions. The kits look easy enough but I was concerned about
whether a hand tool can give me a strong enough swage connection. I thought a
big compression machine was needed to get it to bond correctly.

I used the amsteel blue option been there its 2nd session. Works great.
PHFR race rules now approve on its use. Use the Bromal splice and use the
neoprene thimbles in the loops. Good luck and keep us posted on the new to

Just go to Defender Marine (defender.com) and buy a lifeline kit. It will
come with everything that you need to replace the wire. Use bare s/s wire
and the coated stuff.

Al,
Congrats on buying a great boat!
In addition to SS wire you should consider Dyneema/Amsteel. It is very
easy to splice, and as strong as stainless. There are a number of DIY
stainless kits, but I'm not familiar with them. I'm sure others will chime
in.

The asym jibe isn't really any harder than jibing the genoa for me. Only do it

+1 on what Steve says.
I have a set of the Tacker and the sock and they make handling of the spinnaker
much easier, especially if you are shorthanded.
I still find that flying a chute (shorthanded) requires that the wind is
reasonably steady and that you can run it for a while (setting it up a
