The crew of a Sunreef 62 attempts to soften stiff 16mm Dyneema-core halyards and jib sheets by soaking them in a vinegar-and-water solution.▶ 6:26 The lines, which feature a tight polyester cover, frequently tangle and jam in clutches and winches, making it difficult to drop the mainsail.▶ 5:48 After consulting with other owners of the same vessel model, the crew confirms the line specifications match the manufacturer's manual.▶ 14:15 They soak the end of the main halyard in a bucket with a high concentration of vinegar for 48 hours to test if the solution removes manufacturing chemicals or softens the polyester casing.▶ 12:18 While waiting for the results, the crew anchors in Brewers Bay, Tortola, noting that the area is less frequented by charter boats due to underwater power lines and reef hazards.▶ 17:36 They also replace steel bolts in new aluminum deck chairs with aluminum hardware to prevent rust.▶ 11:06 The effectiveness of the vinegar soak remains under evaluation as a potential alternative to replacing expensive, high-load rigging.▶ 24:29
