Ed,



Be careful about splicing line together for a mainsheet. I've tried it a few times and I've never been happy with the result. The problem is that no matter where you put the splice you end up with it in the wrong place at one time or another. It seemed like when I was going upwind I always ended up holding the small line anyway. If you change your mast rake you will change where the splice should be because your blocks will be closer or farther apart. I absolutely hate having the splice right where I'm sheeting in and out downwind because it tends to stick a little at times. Anyway I just wanted to let you know this as to save you a little time and money if I could. I use some old Lionbraid which I love but I'm just about to switch it out for some 3/8 Yale Light which came stock on my H20.



Good Luck with you decision.
