![]() Roger that. I thought dyneema is too slippery for knots? Especially as-78...
Yes, the hole I have on the roller furler is probably 3/8" - 1/2" and it will be too big for a stopper knot. Another idea was to get a piece of rope and tie a diamond knot with the roller furling line. What do you think? Thanks, Gleb |

![]() Hi again,
Yes, Spectra is slippery. That's why the extra turns on the drum would be so important. And because knots weaken any rope, those extra turns are needed for regular rope furling lines.So you could try one of the rope-enlarging methods we've talked about. Or maybe you could drill a smaller hole in the drum, with faired edges. Fair leads, Brion Toss |
