Somewhere or other, I've read that a useful tool in case of a rigging
failure is a set of bolt cutters so that you can cut away the rigging
on a demasted boat quickly. I can't find that reference now.
My husband wanted to replace a frayed furler (I think), and he got a
large piece of stainless wire rope, and attempted to cut it to size
with the bolt cutters and couldn't do it. These were BIG cutters.
My questions is -How could the bolt cutters be of help if they aren't
able to cut through the rigging?
