I think these tubes are properly called turn buckle boots and they have boot caps which usually are split on Alianna I tape the split caps fast to the boot because the sail and sheet action cause them to ride up the shrouds sometimes.

Slitting the boot and putting tape on it could result in adhesive and then dirt transferring to your sail . Tim From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Stevan Plavsa Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 9:34 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List Disconnecting Shrouds I need to put those plastic tubes over my turnbuckles and the stick is up. I'm pretty sure I can do this but need confirmation/guidance from the list. What's the safest way to go about this? My boat has one set of outer shrouds and one set of inner. I'll be putting the covers on the outer shroud turnbuckles only. Should I use a halyard as backup? I figure loosen tension on outer shrouds evenly. Put tension on halyard (fixed to toe rail) and release that side's shroud. Put cover on, loosely re-attach turnbuckle and do over again on the other side. Once done tension the shrouds properly. Is this right? I've got a brand new genoa and I'de like to protect it best I can.
