Bruce,
Cannot help with Cajun as never used their lines. Annapolis Performance Sailing has an informative website which might be helpful to compare various rope types by application, materials and construction. http://www.apsltd.com/line/sailboat-halyard-line-rope.html Might be worth a look to find trade offs between stretch, weight, hand, and of course $$. If you have self tailing winches, be sure you do not downsize line diameter too much that the self tailer jaws no longer hold the line. Did that on 1 halyard and it is a PITA to hoist a sail. APS does have a rigging sale in January which is when I try to replace any worn line. Others have mention West Marine having a 1 day line sale every once in a while, typically 40% off - but the last one I saw was before WM started their price matching program so they may not have any more of those 1 day sales… Brian From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Bruce Whitmore via CnC-List Sent: Monday, May 14, 2018 10:15 AM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Bruce Whitmore <bwhitm...@sbcglobal.net> Subject: Re: Stus-List Time for new halyard... Recommendations? I know a number of folks have recommended Cajun Ropes, but I don't know their line manufacturer/specs. What are folks thoughts about them? Thanks!
