wichard quick release snap shackle problem

[mixmaster]

We use these wichard snap shackles on our spinnaker sheets/guys: http://www.svendsensmarine.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=WCH%2D2673
If the little rope has torn, is it possible to replace it? It would be a shame to have to replace them just because of that.

Thank you.

Yes, a bit fiddly but perfectly possible.

We.ve got the same, and very good they are too. The cord is definitely replaceable as already posted, you can trip them with a spike or fid as well.
