Double braid line splice with s\v Kitty Toes - came apart - 2018

No more splice, a bowline now
 Yes the splice broke apart when I was tying off the other end on the sail track cleat. We were on the boat at the time, which was a goo thing, as the boom would have swung back and forth if we were at anchor.
At least I have a good idea now on how to splice it again when we purchase the splicing tools. I think it was spliced with too short of an end going into the line.

March 2018 - Currently in Marina Vallarta, Banderas Bay Mexico (Puerto Vallarta Jalisco)
