[quote=turtlecat]ahem...Also check those safety knots on new equipment. Dont assume (as I did) that just because its new it's correct. One time out I had a guy tea bagged on my boat on a brand new adjuster. He was also the guy that I had to "make" wear a pfd. He was not a sailor, it was his first time on a cat, and it was blowing STINK! 2 minutes into the sail and he was 50 yrds behind the boat...trying to swim after me in his pfd...subsequently I REALLY looked at all the adjusters and found that they were all wrong.[/quote]
