Largest in-stock selection of rope on the West Coast

Core: Dynex Dux
Cover: Alpha Ropes V-skin cover
Notes: Covering 6mm Dux with 10mm V-skincover yields about 8% loss in
cover length. The finished line measures 9.5mm diameter and WILL NOT STRETCH AT
ALL. The V-skincover is the most absolutely divine cover material we have ever
had the privilege to use. It has tallied wins in just about every MAJOR
regatta ever sailed including the Volvo. Why? Because it releases just right
and wears in perfectly and DOES NOT BURN!
Conclusion: This combination produces the utmost value for the dollar in a
performance line. It WILL make you a better boat on the race course. Please
email for costs. You will be pleasantly surprised!

Equiplite Spinnaker / Asymmetrical Block compared to a similar Spreacher Block
The new Equiplite Spinnaker block has higher working loads and is much smaller and lighter than the competition as seen in photos. The wide sheave accommodates
two sheets when needed for peels. Brilliant! Perfect for TP 52's
as well as many other performance boats.
