hahahahah, good one papayamon2 (kevin)...were you watching me at ACE Hardware? Okay, I'm going to put back the 7/32" poly-cotton clothes line/mainsheet line...again, I see a WLL of 45lbs on it and I'm sure it would do fine through those blocks (50ft. @ $4.00). Actually, I'm waiting until I either hear from someone...maybe I should ask (HELLO, does anyone living close to Melbourne, FL have 5/32" 1x19 cable for shroud and forestay lines? I don't know exact shroud lenths, but my measurements put it at 21' 8", then a turnbuckle, then the shroud adjuster, attached to a twisted pin, attached to a deck pin. The forestay, without a pigtail is ABOUT 18', then turnbuckle attached to bridle wires). I bought the turnbuckles, shroud adjusters, pins, rings and shackles already. If not, I'm ordering from West Marine and going to swage them myself. I have one Ben Franklin left for this boat (for the shrouds and forestay - thimbles, ferrules and stoppers), and I'm sure you'll all cry about me for this, but in a month I have to go back to work (boo hoo) and the boat will have to sit until I get resettled. This is my chance, please help!!
