Hva denne videoen dekker
Splices preserve a rope's full breaking load; a knot reduces it by 30–40%, meaning a 10 mm line knotted performs like a 5 mm line.▶ 3:30 Maurizio hosts the segment at Marina Capo d'Orlando in Sicily, with Camilla Mosle of SWB and rigger Lillo Bagnato of Spartivento charter company demonstrating the techniques.▶ 1:55 Three-strand polyester mooring lines use a traditional three-strand splice requiring at least five tucks per strand. Dyneema-core lines demand a longer bury — 40–50 times the core diameter (roughly 50 cm for an 8 mm core) — because Dyneema is more slippery than polyester, which needs only 30 times the core diameter.▶ 5:17 Terminations vary by application: a shackle for halyards and sheets, a snap shackle for spinnaker circuits and poles.▶ 7:27 Mooring lines can include a leather chafe guard that extends line life by 20–30%.▶ 8:40 SWB sells pre-made splices starting at €35 for a two-layer polyester line and €42 for Dyneema, with thimbles, shackles, and snap hooks priced separately.▶ 9:11 Splicing kits and individual tools are also available.▶ 6:43 All splices are made by hand — no machine can replicate the process.▶ 12:11
