Klaus did try it stated he ended up having to tighten his stays ever time he went out... (on page 1)
but i think that was before the sk-78 came out.
I to plan to use dyneema trap lines next time.. but i have been warned about chafing on the mast area... so i think i will make steel pigtails for up there..
the new
Wouldn't that defeat the point of the line,reducing weight aloft? Or are you going for the look? On my A I used a piece of braided line cover over the line where chafe would be a problem.
haha, no my goal is not the "look". Though that is a good point. My goal would be to save money and be able to splice and hang this myself (as apposed to having it made at a cost for me at my local shop). That being said.. i think it will be a while before my steel trapwires need replacing . . .
Did the braided jacket hold up? i have been using Robline dingy control line (dyneema 75 with a jacket) and i love the line, but it didn't hold up so well to chaffing.
