    Depends on which state you live in - West Australia allows only one line for fresh water fishing - that saves me from a lot of grief with double hookups :lol: Cheers Mike

    ding, ding, ding went the trolley!

    G'day Flamike, I have a fair amount of curve on the hull, so the centre padeye keeps the line in place. The anchor line runns out thru the carabiner and the tension on this keeps it away from the hull. Hope that helps Cheers Manjimike

    Scarfs on a table saw?

    Most table saws will only adjust to 45*. Assuming the scarf was to be 10*, the table would need to be set to 80*.
