    BMJ Panel Pull ?

    2 questions about using my panel pulls...

    1) Do the panel pulls need to be seam sealed?

    2) What length guylines are people using for the panel pulls? My 4 regular guylines are 6' because that has worked before for me, but I was thinking 12' for the panel pulls because they will have to span more distance and they are more likely to be attached to trees(bigger diameter) than my regular tyout points.

    I will be using it with my JRB BMBH, so the panel pulls will be used often in the case of storms. Whereas I will most likely use a baker hut all other times. Thanks

    1 - I seam sealed mine. Worth the effort. You probably wouldn't ever get dripped on, but I did it anyway.

    2 - My panel pull guy lines are 12' long.
