New England Rope 5/16 Sta-set X @ .68 / foot or 5/16 Sta-Set @ .61 / foot. I just quickly Googled it to get some pricing so don't pay more. Even a cruiser will befit from spending the extra $6 per halyard to have your sail stay in trim more often.

I am just a cruiser with no interest in racing the boat. (Nothing wrong with racing, I'm just a Sunday driver...) I was thinking of a rope only solution just to save a couple bucks. Would your recommendation be to replace with a wire rope solution? Thanks for your thoughts.

If I do this, will I have to replace the sheave as well? Also, how long will this need to be if I want to run the halyard back to the cockpit?
