WIRE.Lifeline wire has traditionally been available in liS" and 3116" wire diameters. 1/4" wire is alsoavailable. That measurement is the actual wire core measurement; the vinyl coating increases thediameter to 7132', 5/16' and 3/S' respectively.

While larger wire is nicer to hang on to, and it is stronger (6100 Ibs. vs. 3700 los. vs. 1760 lbs.), it isalso heavy and disproportionately large for small sailboats. For this reason, most boats use the twosmaller size.

Racing sailboats should follow the ORC Regulations, which specify liS" wire on boats to 2S' LOA, 5/32' to 43' LOA, and 3/16" over 43' LOA. These sizes ar,;minimums; you can obviously use larger sizes. 5/32' wire is not common in the U.S., but we offer it on a custom basis since each terminal has to be built Iromseparate component parts. Please ask for a quote if you are interested in 5/32' wire tifelines.

PuShpil

Single Section Lifelines One Continuous Lifeline Section: This is the simplest. light·est, and least expensive installation. In general. a toggle 'jawis used at Ihe forward attachment point (generally a bail onthe bow pulpit), and one of several fittings is used to connecttothe stern pulpit (pushpit).

Many boats opt to use a gate eye and then lash the eyeto the bail on the pushpit using light braided Dacron line.Alternatively. you can use a lifeline adjuster or turnbuckle.

One variation is to use a pelican hook at the pushpit. sothat the entire lifeline can be slacked when crew are boarding.

Two Lifeline Sections: This is common on boats which donot have two stanchions adjacent to one another which form a"gate". By joining two lengths of lifeline wire at the aftermoslstanchion (or any other stanchion. but the aftermost is mostcommon). the last section is used as a gate. while the laststanchion keeps the rest of the lifeline taut. This is inexpen-sive, and a potential upgrade for existing single section life·lines.

Three Lifeline Sections: Many boats will have two stan-chions about 24" apart. which are designed as a gate forboarding. To open and close the gate, pelican hooks are usedwhich tighten the lifelines when in place. Interlocking "gateeyes" are used to form the hinge in the gate which keepstension on Ihe rest of the lifeline, but allows the gate section tohang vertically when open. Some boat models have bails onthe gate stanchions where each section of lifeline terminates.while others have holes through the stanchion that the lifelinepasses through.

"NOTE: Make measurements from the bearing point of the fittings that you are using. (See front for detailed diagrams.)To ensure complete accuracy adjust fittings back to their original settings before sending them in.
