Has anyone got a pic of the hoop of the factory I20 snuffer. I am interested in the attachment point, and how you are attaching the snuffer bridle.
Thanks,

Dave,

I just took my boat apart, but we just use a length of spectra between the hoop on the bridle and the hoop on the bottom of the snuffer head thru-bolt hardware. Adjust length based on desired "pre-load" and flex... I guess ours is about 2-3" long betwen hoop and hoop and we make about four passes through each hoop with line before tying off.

Have fun!

Jim, what about the bridle itself. Are you using factory cable, or spectra there as well. I am using some spectra(?) line now, but want to know what everyone else is using. Does the factory supply a standard bridle?
