I have a 2005 Straightline Thermal Line.

The 2005 is a 75' line (80' with handle).

It has three tie-offs at 65', 75' and 80' (including handle).

65' feels too close to the boat and 75' feels too far. And it does not have a 70' tie-off.

So my question is...is there any way to add a tie-off at 70' without damaging the rope. Has anyone done this on their rope? Especially if you have a thermal line.

I know a lot of you are thinking, "Just tie a knot". Well I could do that, but that would probably damage the rope so I could never go back to 75' if someone wanted that length. Thermal lines do not like knots (at least the 05 does not, it causes the plastic to peal off).

Replace the 10' extension with 2 5's. Or reverse what you have so it goes 65' 70' 80'

wow, thanks stanfield. that did the trick!

I didn't know those extensions came out. I thought they were all part of one rope.

And I thought I was going to have to buy a new rope . You just saved me 80some bucks.
