They are pretty easy to make with some 1/4 “ dyneema. I searched for a while but couldn’t find anyone selling what I was trying to replace. With the right fids, it takes about 15-20 minutes to get one of these done. Also very helpful was the Ronstan D splicer for pulling through the ends. I used this website to get the lengths and sizing right. On Aug 1, 2022, at 9:13 PM, Eric Freedman <kimberlite.ef@...> wrote:

Hello, They are pricey though so if you can make your own it's probably a much better deal. - Justin On Mon, Aug 1, 2022 at 8:13 PM Eric Freedman <kimberlite.ef@...> wrote:

Eric,
Would you happen to know the various rope diameters for the A54? I recall that the one used for the main sheet is a larger diameter than the others.
I’m away from by boat at present but need to get some.
Cheers, Paul

hi Eric, Hope all is well. I have purchased a couple of these continuous soft shackles from local West Marine rigger (her name at the Kemah location store is Tania) for about $25 for 3mm dynema with soft cover and $35 for 6mm dynema with soft cover. You can verify the loop length usually around 1ft complete loop is her standard. I assume your local West Marine if they have a rigger in Huntington could make the same.
