Adam F Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 Do we have either anywhere in the club? I'll be needing a decent amount of 12mm for a new warp, and a new set of graphics making up. I have contacts Ive used in the past, but just wondered if we had anyone in the club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted May 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Contacted them today. Seemed expensive to me, £100 for 3 boat names, £175 if I wanted them fitted? I'm sure I paid not more than £30 for all the ones on JV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Adam, Gael force marine do 220 m coils at a reasonable price. I need to set up a warp of 14 mm to work with windlass on Redfin. We normally work with a 220 m length so don't worry too much about how much we use. Think space might be an issue on the anchor locker with 14mm so thinking of trying to reduce a bit how much warp do you generally work with?

Adam F Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Yes, a full coil - 220m, but for the new boat I'll use 12mm, I had 10mm on JV which was fine. I'd suggest looking at 10 or 12mm to save space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam F Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I'm sorted with graphics - via Graham. £25 all in. Top man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Pete we use 12mm nylon to get a full coil in the locker. Never had a problem with the strength of the rope Nearly said never had a problem, then I remembered a four hour tow (thanks Dave) after getting the rope around the props Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I think we need 14mm to work with windlass but am wondering if it is easier to stick with our Alderney rig for deep water Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Peter, I fitted 12mm octoplait on my boat................ and the windlass would not retrieve it, stick to 14mm minimum. Mick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Peter, Can't you just have a short amount of 14mm for shallow water / windless use. Then have the Buoy for deeper water. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Thanks Mick think you are right. Rob that's what we,do,at moment just a pain having the extra gear on foredeck Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob I use 25 m of 14mm rope plus chain on the winch for shallow water and 170m of 12mm multi-plait for deep water anchoring with an alderney ring an an 7.5 kg bruce tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve S Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I use 200m of 14mm Octoplait connected to 16m of 8mm chain on a CPX3 Windlass for everything, works really well. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Thanks Adam The second time it was not my rope. We are still using an alderney ring system to lift the anchor, when out deep But the new capstan whips in the rope without any effort. There is less rope and calibrated chin on the other capstan for inshore use Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
