Ultra Lite - Samson |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Construction: Polypropylene Cover w/ a Spectra/Polypropylene Blend
This line is extremely low-stretch, lightweight and strong. It floats and absorbs no water. A 26% weight savings over 100% polyester lines. The new 24 carrier jacket has been engineered with a coating for added wear life. Boats 25' and under are using this line more and more for greater weight savings on almost every line on the boat. Expect a slightly shorter cover life than a 100% polyester line, but it's not a bad trade-off given the weight savings. Common Applications: On a light air day when extra weight at the clews can collapse your sail, Ultra Lite is perfect for spinnaker sheets. Commonly used as halyards and sheets for weight savings.
Please Note: Line is priced and sold by the foot. |

Flight Line - New England |
||||||||||||||||||||||
| Construction: Polypropylene Cover w/ a Dyneema SK-75 Core
This super lightweight, high strength, and low stretch line has a super strong core of 100% braided Dyneema SK-75 surrounded by a braided jacket of braided polyolefin (MFP). The cover is strippable to expose the color-coded core beneath and makes tapering and splicing effortless. Flight Line floats indefinitely in both salt and fresh water and comes in a variety of colors to make rigging any small boat easy: Red (Port), Green (Starboard), Yellow (High Visibility), and Blue (Centerline). Common Applications: Light air spinnaker sheets, mainsheets, control lines and topping lifts.
Please Note: Line is priced and sold by the foot. **Spliceable: Yes. However, due to unique construction of this line, we recommend only Professional splicing or tapering. |

Excel Fusion 75 - Marlow |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Construction: Dyneema/Polypropylene Cover with a Dyneema (SK-75) Core
This line is soft to the touch, but firm enough in construction to hold well in cleats. The cover texture makes it easy to hold on to under load. None of the marterials absorb water so it stays light. With a small diameter, 100% Dyneema SK75 core, stripping the jacket aggressively reduces line diameter and weight. Unlike other lines with 100% polypropylene covers, Excel Fusion has a blend of Dyneema and polyproplyne to better deal with abrasion and heat (melting) under high loads. Common Applications: Lightweight spinnaker sheets (cover stripped or unstripped) on dinghies and small keel boats like the Melges 24. Also makes a great dinghy mainsheet.
Please Note: Line is priced and sold by the foot. **Spliceable: Yes. However, due to unique construction of this line, we recommend only Professional splicing or tapering. |

NewSwift - Maffioli |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Construction: Dyneema SK-75/Polypropylene Cover w/ a Dyneema SK-75/Cordura Core
We love Swiftcord, but find that it can flatten out in cleats under load and then slip. Introducing “Newswift” - the next generation of Gottifredi Maffioli’s popular Swiftcord. A blend of Dyneema for strength and Cordura for superior grip, Newswift has the added strength of a DSK 75-Poly blend core. This core prevents the line from trapping water and boosts grip in a cleat. Lightweight, strong, low stretch - perfect for spinnaker sheets. Stiffer than Swiftcord, but loosens up a bit after use. * This line is splicable, but can difficult. Common Applications: Any type of control line on dinghies and big boats. Main and jib sheets on dinghies, sport boats and keelboats.
Please Note: Line is priced and sold by the foot. |
