KINKS IN RIG. 



Editor Forest and Stream: •, 



As I am greatly interested in the subject of single banders it 

 Occurred to me that it might be of interest to some of your readers 

 lo know of an arrangement which I have been trying for a couple of 

 years on my small schooner. I bought of a harness maker a num- 

 ber of galvanized halter snaps, made to receive the end of a rope 



': •■ lend of u strap, and spliced one of these snaps on to the end 

 of etieh piece of running rigging on my yacht. Thus my halliards, 

 sheets, downhauL, etc., are all capable of being detached in a few 

 minutes. To owners who arc accustomed to strip their own craft 

 each fall and tit them out again each spring, this scheme wilh I think, 

 appeal very forcibly. I have also found it very convenient In chang- 

 ing or modifying the rig, as one can divest the yacht of every par- 

 ticle of running rigging without any assistance, and can repluce it 

 in much l.-ss time than by the common method. 



My vachl is twenty-five feet over all, and I am convinced that the 

 rope snap will be found useful on all yachts up to thirty-five feet. 

 There may be a better method, but 1 believe there is none more 



In conclusion, let me sav th.it 1 like the looks of the Fendeur, and 

 I have had in mind a similar scheme for some time, as I believe in 

 the theory of lateral friction, and of course the nearer straight the 

 frames tie- less surface exposed. Respectfully yours, NlM.
