Bungee Cord Splice, Is there such a thing?

[Neptunes Violin]

Hey there Pyrofly:

Please please come back here and post your findings. I too am planning the same thing with stemballs dropped into isomat spreader bases. I thought it was a wicked idea, but now not so sure.

Personally, i would throw the bungee cords overboard. I have used bungee on deck for minor stuff. It doesn't last more than half a season. The sun cooks it to death.

I am not sure how best to stow the runners when they are not in use. I am leaning to coiling them on the rail/lifeline close to the sidestays. I am a cruiser so all that quick-release stuff is not important to me. The runners and new inner forestay will be solely for storm gear.
