When I was a kid we sailed a sloop, 23', no lifelines. Having once hung off the stays with both feet off the deck while trying to get back from the pointy end... I like lifelines. I'm not as strong as that anymore, I'm sure it would end badly. :-) Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11

Hi Joel I replaced my dubious lifelines a couple of years ago. I used the bits from C.S. Johnson (bought through Defender) and did a exposed wire set. Very happy with them so far, and when the wire looks iffy I can reuse the hardware. They come as kits, or you can mix and match. Graham Col
