Hi there,
Sans tracers, you can use rope diameters, specified in Book 5. Or you can, in a pinch, measure tracer length by, um, tracing a yarn one circumference of the rope. Just pulling gently on one will show where it gets to. Or you can count pics, which always seemed needlessly labor-intensive to me.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
