HopCar was kind enough to send me this shrink wrap. Parks, unfortunately, it was too small to fit over the line. So I thought I'd repurpose it as chafe protection for my bow lines where they run through my chocks. No luck there either. I can't get the line through it.
I recently bought some lighter 1/2 inch lines to make it easier to grab the initial dock cleat on arrival. I'll fit these lines with the shrink tubing as chafe protection. Thanks much for sending it to me!! What great customer service!
