Nick replaces a worn outhaul on his boat with a new spliced Dyneema line supplied by Premium Ropes, walking through each step of routing it through the boom.▶ 0:03 Before feeding the new line, he attaches the spliced loop end to the clew fitting using a cow hitch rather than a shackle — eliminating metal-on-metal chafe, reducing rattle, and allowing the clew to pull closer to the boom end.▶ 2:19 Because the splice is too thick to pass through the internal sheaves easily, he sews the new line to the old one with twine rather than taping them together, arguing that tape risks separating mid-boom and forcing removal of 12 interior panels to re-run the line.▶ 4:51 A second crew member feeds the line while Nick guides it through a 45-degree sheave stack inside the boom.▶ 7:32 He also covers whipping technique, explaining that hand-stitching the whipping binds the core to the outer sheath and prevents the two from separating under load — a failure mode that simple heat-melting does not prevent.▶ 10:34 A routing decision is noted: he omits one fairlead that previously created excessive friction on the outhaul's lead angle, leaving that arrangement open for future revision.▶ 9:19
