    Congrats on your new catamaran!!! Coming from a couple who have a 27-year age difference, we appreciate your videos and humor 😅... something to think about, it seems that most people today don't realize that one of the reasons for a snubber is to give some elasticity to the solid chain to help take the incredible pulling forces that bad weather can cause stress wise to the gear holding it all together on the boat itself... cleats, etc... dynema is stringer than steel and will surely hold without breaking but it doesn't have any stretch to help alleviate the incredible forces put on the boats holding gear...
    We live and operate a 50ft cat in the Bahamas... It's boat number 12 for us... in our experience, the longer the snubber with the ability to stretch gives the boat a much more comfortable ride in up to hurricane type winds and the fronts that run through here almost daily. A good thick three strand nylon line works wonders...
    Meaning no disrespect, just a something to think about 😊...
    Love you videos and outlook on life... safe travels, always. G

    William is that guy you'd love for a neighbor. But i get it, its better to let him travel the world making people smile. And who knows, i might just get to drop anchor and hang out with him someday. Brother, you sure figured out life. And add your knowledge and personality and your that guy that anyone would like to be friends with. And yes, you're special too! Otherwise we wouldn't be seeing you two together. You're the perfect couple for liveaboard life. And thats what makes each video worth waiting for. Congratulations on your anniversary! Fair winds and following seas to you both.

    I thought NEMA rope has very little stretch. I would think other ropes shock absorbing stretch would be beneficial. The Solid jerk might hammer your cleats and anchorage free and effect the comfort onboard. I would like to know your thought process, as I sit in my house? Sun damage perhaps?

    You never use dyneema for a bridle you always use nylon so it can stretch and act as a shock absorber. That’s the whole purpose of a bridle.

      Hey
      I totally understand. On the CAT there is plenty of room and maybe some folks will think we are a duel prop powered craft. Lol
      After many days at anchor watching the wind blow thru the cabin I decided to waste all that extra power is like a few free showers, plus as an engineer I want to test and provide others real life data rather than some chart in a book
