One more simple step for the lead boxes and a new string arrangement 5.5 more wear resistant

Peter is on holliday. Petter is an other friend. Petter made todays video, so thanks Petter.
I have made a better string arangement. There are now two strings to each piece of lead and the strings diameter is increased from 3 mm to 5 mm. This means that their cross area have increased by the square of the quotient 2.77… times 2 = 5.6
Thats makes the strings more wear resistant.
Also to produce wear movement is required but as the strings is so tightly knotted and the distance is so short I belive that wear should for practical purposes be not notisable.
Most people do not understand that, even seamen. Fairleads for moring ropes are used on almost every sailboat. This is unwise. I never use fairleads. I put the cleats or strong points at the edge of the boat. That way no wear can occor.
Back to the lead. Default position is three leads on each side. As wind increase I move ono to windward. Then there are four to windward and one in lee giving 28 extra kilos rightning moment and so on. Out in the open things do not happen quickly and the lead is more as an extra, not a neccesity.
