[quote=Edchris177]Thanks Dave, I have the 9' shock cords, got that number from the "tip" in Murrays catalog.
Andrew & Yurdle, I agree, weak line could send you for a dunking. The pieces are brand new, ends from a re rig. I was thinking 1/4", the other stuff just looked to damn skinny! He has some 3' & 4' pieces of new Sta Set,both sizes, 3/16" & 1/4". If 3' is enough for the rear, & 4' enough for the crew, I'll use that. I just didn't want to bother with them if I need a longer line. If there is no good reason to use 3/16", I'm thinking that 1/4" would give an added safety factor as that line in Sta Set has a strength of 2500# Plus he has pieces in blue, that would match the rudder lines, rendering the whole thing looking a little more refined, or less like the Clampets:lol:
I'll have to take a picture next time I go up to the cottage. There are 4 trap lines, (2 each side), the traditional style dogbones, & a small block with each. He had a short bungee clipped to a strap eye on the end of the beam. I don't think it would allow for any movement in position.
If some one has a good picture of the setup that would be appreciated.[/quote]
