[C320-list] Dutchman Replacement Line Source

[hcreech at comcast.net]

I just received replacement lines from Dutchman $24.00, it was 60' long and was perfect length with a little left over in each pocket. While your deal is better, for a one time shot, my originals lasted 10 seasons, Dutchman may be a better source for some. I am just replying with the necessary length. If anyone wants the contact information for Dutchman , please let me know.

Hello, 

In looking around for suitable replacement monofilament line for 
the Dutchman, I ended up purchasing a 100yard coil of 600lbs test 
Monofilament Fishing Leader online through TackleDirect.com for about 
$42. 

There's a picture on our website in the Technical Photo gallery here:

I don't recall precisely how many feet it takes to replace both lines, 
but I'd guess that you could get 4 or 5 sails done with 300 feet, so 
getting a few buddies together on this could be a pretty economical 
way to go. 

The prices on the Dutchman site were much higher, but sometimes 
they'll send you a free replacement which is even a better deal :) 

I know some have used round weed wacker line, but this stuff is really 
smooth and very strong, so it's one option.
