Default Details, please

I am interested in the details of this covered HM to regatta braid "splice".

I assume that the HM cover tail is just deeply tucked into the regetta braid and librerally stitched in place. Do you serve/whip the end of the regatta braid on to the covered HM? I would think it would be difficult to tuck the regatta braid into the covered HM.

What sort of diameter ratios are we talking about? e.g. 5/16" HM into 3/8" regatta braid?

This topic is mostly cosmetic, as the regatta braid is never really loaded, but just used to tow the HM tail back to the winch.

Thanks,

Bob
