  If you are going to pretend to be a rope expert, you could at least call that rope by the proper term. I specialized in high angle rescue as well as did some mountain climbing, rapelling, and even sold rope. That rope is properly called kernmantle, not double braid. And, since you are using marine rope it is most likely polypropylene cored which would mean it is static kernmantle as opposed to dynamic kernmantle.

• 
  @BottomUPBoats24 күн бұрын

  Climbers are a different level, goes without saying that you would want to be if you where putting your life in the hands of one of these. Sailors have always referred to this as double braid. I am guessing the will be various materials used to make the rope.

  Good video. We had these splices on our Para Sailor sheets, they all began to bulge the core out of the covers at the eye. I ended up stuffing them back in and sewing the eyes through the covers and cores to keep this from happening again. Not a good solution but the only one we could think of in the middle of the ocean. Has anyone solved this problem?

• 
  @BottomUPBoatsАй бұрын

  If you repeat the final steps for a second time it should slide back in, it sounds like you have quite a bit of slack between the cover and core. If this was the case wipping like you said is more than likely the best option. The other option if you have a big gap between the cover and to core is iis to go a lot further past top of the eye when you put the core into the cover at the 6:30 minute mark, if you double the lenght you go back up the eye you will increase the amount of the splice with multiple widths which will increase the locking load created by the rope.

  Yes, you need to pull the dyneema out to get enough length to create the eye splice. You then pull the cover over the core to finish the splice off and have dual thickness all the way up to the eye of the splice

  Hi there, i am thinking of replacing part of the standing rigging on my 22 foot sailing boat from stainless steel to dyneema. I was thinking of the 2 lowers and backstay. My question is, would those eye splices be strong enough for the job, please. Best regards Oz from England.

• 
  @BottomUPBoatsАй бұрын

  If you get the right diameter of dyneema it will be more than strong enough. In many case the rope can have a higher breaking load than traditional wire. I have a j109 which is 36 foot long and I use dyneema for my back stay. The J1019 has a mast head kite so the loads can be high. The only point to consider is that dyneema will stretch as the rope beds in. This is why many still choose metal rigging for the lowers. You could always tighten the splice if it did stretch

  Over trimming the main to offset the spin heeling the boat in that direction has saved us from death roll gybes many times on boats up to this size..seems about 40 ft loa. Also over trimming the chute helps too..which is just the opposite of what most people do…it is the symmetric chute that is overpowered and heels the boat to a point that the rudder loses control and the gybe occurs out of control. Over trimming it usually depowers it as well. It has to be done in time though

  Es ist nicht nötig, diese Verbindung zu heften, die Verbindung verriegelt sich selbst und wird unter Belastung fester.

Je länger es ist, desto sicherer ist die Verbindung.
