johnson life line terminals, lever vs. handtool

[seawolf]

Stumble,
I was able to look at the pictures.
That is a great help. The splicing looks clean and uncluttered without expensive fittings.
I think the only thing I may do different is to install a gate, as we do a lot of raft ups and I do not like the idea of the lines just drooping down from the stanchions and causing a trip hazard for people walking across the boat.
I am getting excited about learning the splices and putting it all together.
Volador has a blue hull, so the amsteel blue may be a good compliment.
Thanks again for your help and the pics.
Bob
