>Right...great idea G. Lemme see..... I use about, oh, between the 100 and 155 about 8 positions. Even considering the two tack locations I bounce between. So that would be only 16 snatch blocks.
I like these ones...... http://mauriprosailing.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=L EW19810600&Category_Code=SNATCHBLOCK They are only $128.30 apiece. So that's.....mmmmmm.........$2052.80....plus shipping. I think it would look really cool.....and they come with nice shiny snap shackles too. But, I doesn't solve the original problem....altering the turning point and sheeting angle of a (usually) heavily loaded line on the lee side of a small boat without spillage. I have always dreamed of a track car with control lines led aft to within rotational scope of my elbow/ hand. Less potential beer spillage with the added bonus of additional Tweekers Delight. Did I tell you about my new back stay adjuster yet? Team Geezer North is now holding more sail longer and loving the feel. PUFF T ---------------------------------------------- Strange offset u-bolts in order? I think a set of those wildly expensive snatch blocks would be easier and multi-purpose. Still use BH when necessary. GO PS How is Team Geezer North Chapter doin'? Team Geezer Racing.....Old and in the Way Arizona Sailing Squadron **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers.
