Default Bowsprit netting

Thanks for the good information on bowsprit netting, I will have to digest your information and see what I can figure out. Interesting, using the clove hitch/siezing combo. Also a thanks to Ian on mentioning the differences between chain and cable and the suggestion to consider swapping chain for cable. I am not sure about the footrope idea, as I have been out on square rigger's yards and Bsprits and find that the more weight (people) on a footrope the better for stability with less "sag" until you can drop your weight over the yard or stay and I am not sure I will be able to run the footrope low enough to use the Bsprit to lean on. But I will take a look at it.
Thanks
Bob
