13.2 Running rigging
The ropes which make up the running rigging are made of textile fibres which need to be continually checked
due to their sensitivity to ultra-violet light. Rinsing them in fresh water after every trip at sea will extend
their life expectancy as well as improve their handling by reducing the amount of salt which can dry within
the fibres.
