All, Both ISAF and USSailing are banning dyneema lifelines for offshore races because they have failed due to chafe on a few boats. USSailing is allowing them this year.
I've seen no sign of chafe after 2 seasons. If I'm doing the Bermuda race again I'll be making a lot of soft shackles from my lifelines next winter! Joel 35/3 Annapolis -- Joel 301 541 8551
