The lifelines on
Britannia were showing signs of chafe and old age, so I replaced them Dyneems with rope. This long article explores the pros and cons of rope or wire for lifelines, and I finally used Dyneema rope which is stronger than wire and easier and cheaper to replace, and is also lighter and will not go rusty.
The article also shows where to buy all types of rope, including Dyneema, wholesale from the manufacturer at much reduced costs than retail.
