It can also be the mast making the noise. Haul a line up on the halyard and wrap it around the mast in a few places. It helps on our boat when we have some howling. On Tue., May 18, 2021, 9:38 p.m. Doug Mountjoy via CnC-List, < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > We grabbed the shrouds one day made

Doug, I run messenger lines in place of my halyards for the winter and this past winter the parachute cord I use for the main halyard sings like a guitar string in very gentle breezes.  When I tighten it up it changes pitch.  Willing to bet somewhere you've got a vibrating line, as others
