Re: Ufo 9m bar, line lentgh and wind range

For the Guardian I simply replaced the stock sheeting rope that gives you 17/18" of throw with my own. I use 1/8th blue spectra with a locking brummell on each end. I bury a very long tail so that most of the rope is doubled within itself. Very durable. You lose about 20% of your length on the bury....

Re: Ufo 9m bar, line lentgh and wind range

I modded my 20” Guardian bars for more throw. A lot more—26” from stock 17/18”. Works great. 20m lines.

For me 9m is ideal with 13-16mph avg.

Re: DIY long pigtail

I have made my own center depower line for my four SS Compstick Guardians with 1/8 in Spectra and a locking Brumell on each end. I bury a very long tail such that the 1/8th is effectively buried over the entire length of the depower rope making the diameter roughly 1/4". I have added 7" to the stock...

Anyone find a phone number for them in USA, corporate or a shop? I can only come up with email contact. Trying to speak to them re a suit.

Thanks.

Re: Covid vaccine

Sorry, but you imply that a good deal of the bs on this thread should be debated. You are fanning the flames of miss-information, knowingly, or not, all the while wrapping yourself in a mantle of "Hey, I just want the truth."

Good luck finding it on an on-line forum.
