PLEASE EXCUSE MY LACK OF ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS I POSED ABOUT A WEEK AGO - I WENT AND GOT SICK - CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT? - ANYHOW, I'M BETTER SO HERE WE GO
NYLON IS THE WORKHORSE OF THE RECREATIONAL MARINE WORLD AND GENERALLY USED IN DOCK LINES, ANCHOR LINES AND MOORING PENDANTS. IT IS STRONG, ITS MAJOR ENEMIES BEING ABRASION, ( INTERNAL AS WELL AS EXTERNAL) AND SUNLIGHT - IT ALSO HAS A NICE ELASTIC TENDENCY WHICH ALLOWS IT TO STRETCH BEFORE IT BREAKS
POLYESTER HAS A STABILITY QUALITY ( IT DOES NOT STRETCH ) SO IT IS PERFECT FOR LINES TO RAISE AND SET SAILS SO THEY STAY WHER YOU PUT THEM - IT IS NOT AS STRONG AS NYLON
POLYPROPELENE FLOATS - IT MAKES GREAT LINE FOR LIFE SAVING DEVICES BECAUSE OF THIS CHARACTERISTIC - IT IS NOT AS STRONG AS NYLON OR POLYESTER, BUT PLENTY STRONG TO RETRIEVE SOMEONE WHO HAS FALLEN OVERBOARD
SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, LET ME KNOW - OUR JOB IS TO PUT THE RIGHT ROPE FOR THE JOB IN YOUR HAND
OH, ALL OUR ROPE IS AMERICAN MADE TO AT LEAST CORDAGE INSTITUTE SPECS
