I used snatch blocks attached to the toe rail, one on either side and aft
of the tracked roller cars to prevent jib sheets chafing the cockpit
coaming on their way to the winch. Worked fine on a 35MKII

I've used these guards for a few years..mixed reviews, however.They work well if you can form them over coaming edges. Etc. Without resizing.When I needed to "fit" a piece leading to a winch and cam cleat.I cut it to shape, but the corners keep lifting and THEY ARE VERY SHARP bloody sharp.If you get it set...it does wear very well.Ron C.ImpromptuC 38 MKIIC'77On Oct 1, 2022 9:11 AM, MICHAEL BRANNON via CnC-List  wrote:I was told by a customer this week that it does not hold up very well.   Nevertheless it looks like something that is worth trying.  Mike BrannonVirginia Lee - 93295C 36 CBVirginia Beach, VAOn Sep 12, 2022, at 4:09 PM, Bill Coleman via CnC-List  wrote:I need 3 chafe guards, what I did was measure the radius it was going on and bought some SS tubing to fit that radius.Then cut it longitudinally in quarters and cleaned  the edges up, & buffed it out.

I was told by a customer this week that it does not hold up very well.   
Nevertheless it looks like something that is worth trying.

I need 3 chafe guards, what I did was measure the radius it was going on
and bought some SS tubing to fit that radius.
Then cut it longitudinally in quarters and cleaned  the edges up, & buffed
it out. Going to stick it on with 5200,  Just another thought. I think for
the anchor, I will glue a piece of urethane where the chain rubs. Chain can
make a mess of SS.

Joe, I've used it around anywhere rope chafe occurs.cockpit coaming leading lines over edges. Traveller lines, etc. I've cit it to size easilyHOWEVER, see the comment on the raised SHARP edges. It needs hard rolled around the edges to keep the corners from lifting.BUT, it does stop rope chafing and wearing into the fiberglass edges.Ron C.On Sep 8, 2022 12:11 PM, Joe Della Barba via CnC-List  wrote:https://www.nowearguard.com/ It sure looks nice.

I used that in the chain trough between the roller and the locker to avoid 
damage from the chain on the deck.  Worked just fine.

Joe,

I tried it, or something similar, years ago.  It used two sided tape that
left the edges sticking up off the deck.  Be careful where you put it so
you don't slice a body part on the edge.
