Rope guide

Before you buy rope, read what matters

Answers to the questions sailors ask before buying rope: material, diameter, length, care. No marketing, just the numbers from our tables.

Anchor & mooring

How to choose an anchor rope: material, diameter and length

The anchor rope holds the whole boat. Here is which material absorbs shock loads, which diameter fits your boat and how much rope your anchorages require.

Sheets

Too thin a rope is hard to grip and slips; too thick binds in stoppers and does not sit on the winch. How to find the right diameter for halyards, sheets and control lines.

Halyards

Dyneema or polyester? How to choose the rope material

The two most common fibres on deck and two different philosophies. When Dyneema is worth the investment and where polyester does the same job for a fraction of the price.
