Hi Steve,

I think I use ¼” OD StaSet X dacron double braid for both applications.  Now is a good time to color code these lines if you don’t minding paying a few cents more per foot.

Hi all. It's time to replace my roller furling line and topping lift. Does
anybody know what type of lines these are? These two are different types.
The topping lift is the same stuff as the rudder up and downhaul and same
as the centerboard uphaul. It's stiffer and presumably more
abrasion-resistant. The furling line might best be double braid
polypropylene or nylon (?) (although that's not what's on there now — don't
know what it is) and may require some of its length to be de-cored so it
all fits on the roller. Any suggestions?
