Splicing Modern Ropes: A Practical Handbook
This is the definitive guide to this crucial skill. Most of the techniques are quite easy to master - and also fun to do.

Learn how to
* make strong, reliable splices in braided rope
* select ropes in the materials that best suit your on-board requirements
* customise your ropes to make your setup easier and safer
* optimise your deck layout and save weight on board
* taper your sheets for ease of handling
* splice an extra cover on your ropes to give better grip in clutches, avoid chafe and make them last longer
While a knot can reduce the strength of a rope by as much as 50%, a well-spliced rope loses only 5-10%. The techniques, insights and suggestions within these pages will be invaluableto all boaters, whether recreational or commercial.
