Hi,
I'm about to make my first equipment line. I mean a rope to which I could hang my SM tanks and other equipment after surfacing in order to make the crawl into a RHIB easier. The concept seems simple, but I haven't seen one in operation yet. Is there something to consider? How long should it be? Does it need a float or should it better sink? What is the ingenious way to attach it to the boat? What about the attachment points for the gear? Should I make just some loops in the line or attach some D-rings or what? Thanks for your wisdom!
