Correction to the chain information:

I took the chain out this morning and found I had already cut it into one
110' length; one 50' length and three 20' lengths.  I thought I was going to
wait for the next hurricane before I cut it up but I guess I didn't (that
was 7 years ago!).  The 3/4-inch line posting was correct (one 200'
[actually it is 198 or 199') and one 100' [probably 101' or 102' as this was
originally a 300' spool]).

The "worst" section of the 110' ...the first 3 - 4' -- has some rust on the
links (picture available).The rest of the chain is actually in better
condition then I remembered.

Sorry for the misinformation about the lengths. I know this changes the
potential use significantly.
