    Sent ya a message. (Or started a conversation, hopefully that is the same as a PM on other boards)

    Threw the entire bundle in the bathtub with soap and hot water, soaked it for a few hours, then drained and rinsed with fresh for another few hours.
    (Wife did not squawk too much, she is used to odd behavior)
    Need to dry outside for a few days.
    Noticed there is still blue tape left from the splicing work, it indicates it has only been in salt water once or twice, the tape usually disappears rather fast.

    Looks and feel brand new now. (Soft)

    Total shipping bill $104,50.
    The double sided cardboard box was $9 and I added
    $200 of insurance, $100 was included.
    Total weight with box came to 64 lbs.
    I bit more expensive than I estimated, but it always is.
    Even with shipping the buyer got the line for just about half price.
