3/8 brand name rope 20k breaking strength. [SK-75]
2$/foot I will splice free
15$ for the HD tube thimble
46$ for an Excel big ass hook [7/16]
I will add webbing to your line for the cost of the web.

The small stuff is spin sheets & a main halyard I made with one season of offshore racing on it..
The winch line is off to Greenbay.

Quick pic's of the line I just made for a member

1st pic splice made
2nd begining of the taper
3&4 finish taper

To me one of the most important parts is the taper. Smooth transition here is important..

To anybody interested in these lines....they are awesome!!! But get the hook. You'll be hard pressed to find something that fits. The only other product I've found that is big enough is made by Gunnebo for about $65.

i am using a 3/4" bow shackle. fits perfect, but not much room for error, like i was hoping.

I thought about that but had some concerns. With the harsh Wisconsin winters, I'm afraid I wouldn't the the bolt loose when I needed the winch line. A hook is just more convenient for me.

BTW...found a Gunnebo for $55 shipped. It should be here sometime next week :)
