[quote=icon149]So if i understand, that means that the line does not go over the hull right? i guess it seems like you lose some potential mechanical advantage by having the lines anchored to the inside of the hull/tramp and not a line over the hull/outside of the hull. that additional lever arm makes a big difference when righting a large boat doesn't it? Did i miss something there?
I can see how that would be a huge help with a crew to quickly get in position and keep the boat mast from sinking, but i think ti would be an impossible task to right a bigger boat solo with lines that run to the inside of the hulls.[/quote]
