Bluewave

I'm sat here just wondering, how it is that after what, over ten years at least I've been trawling these pages and nobody has ever mentioned them...

And they do a natty fast pin with velcro securing strap..

You'd have thought, somebody might have pointed them out, all my years of ranting at the crap y'all use those chain plates and pins all different dimensions.

I only picked up on because of a conversation on the Contender site somebody asking if they're legal ffs you can imagine what the reply is probably going to be..

Just another example of what might have been had we had that magazine and writers that were actually ineterested in what we do and want to do, instead of what we used to do..

Nicely engineered and would good on a keel boat or a small yacht .

Musto Skiff allowed them last time i looked, if you'd stuck it out with the class you would've come across them years ago.

Bluewave turnbuckles are a great piece of kit. Use them on the 29er and they allow dynamic rig tension change on the water.

Never pinched or known anyone pinch a finger.

As for over engineered…..I’ve never known one break!

Originally posted by davidyacht Presumably the benefit of "stuff I've got going on here" is the simplification of the concept ... so why would I want three heavy, over engineered and expensive devices, where a clevis pin and split ring will do?

Don't get this, why wouldn't you? I think it's called progress, shall I spell it for you?

Or has your automobile still got the crank handle at the front to start it up?
