Re: Best Stopper Knots for Team Supplied Knots


Quote:
Q: Since the splice is not a knot, per Q57, and the splice itself meets the specifications of a rope, is it ok that part of the splice extends more than 2” below the davit fingers?

A: Yes, per I04, part E as updated in Team Update 05 any retaining feature may extend up to 2 in. below the DAVIT fingers.

Yes what?

Yes the splice itself meets the definition of a rope.. and therefore it's OK that part of the splice extends more than 2” below the davit fingers?

or

Yes the splice is a retaining feature... and therefore is not allowed to extend more than 2” below the davit fingers?
