[quote=MN3]however you end up with a lot of the same line everywhere. it makes it MUCH harder to pull the main traveler sheet if it's in a pile of identical main sheet and jib sheet - and you only NEED a sheet when it's honking out and you need to uncleat or depower also makes communicating to crew to pull the "down-haul" (or other), esp if they aren't 100% sure which is a down-haul, nor you,out-h, nor your barber-h, 4 way jib adjuster, or cenerboard up line, or centerboard down line, etc when they are all the same color / size line You may be able to call some shops like Murrys or SaltyDog and they may have the lenght data onhand (or kits posted online) and will custom cut you an order at regular rates.... OR you can easily take a few lines out and rig your "x" and write down the length needed and compile a list yourself [quote] or is it much cheaper to buy a few spools and cut /melt ends on my own?[/quote] Probably is cheaper if you have the need for a lot of line. This is a good time to contact sail lofts and others .. they may want to get rid of some last years line, or desperate for cash this time of year. Let me know if you are truly interested, i have a few leads on spools<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on Feb 17, 2016 - 12:37 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
