I'm surfing for deals on line for my jib (genoa) sheets, and wondered if there is anything new or improved anyone is doing when tying on the sheets. I''ve been using the ol' bowline...but have used the butterfly (I think that's what a loop on a continuous line is called). I have heard of using Dyneema...lightweight shackles...etc. Anyone have some cool experience/suggestions? *Chuck Saur* C&C 35-3 Morning Sky _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
