Bowlines are hard to release under pressure as well.. and if you douse by letting the guy run , sometimes "catches" occur and a release mechanism is welcome .
Bowlines might be okay for a cruising/snuffer-sock setup Tim 33MKII From: cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Indigo Sent: Friday, September 14, 2012 1:29 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List C&C 35Mk III Spinnaker Sheets / Guys I thought bowlines were prone to coming loose when not under load.

I will probably go with standard snap-shackles as the Tylaska shackles are a luxury I do not really need. I was wondering what line is recommended by other 35MKIII listers, and whether it makes sense to remove the cover (and how much). I will be sticking with my older guys for at least another year or so.
