Sheet, Halyard & Control Line
Marlow's Double Braid offers strength, durability & flexibility in a great all round polyester rope.
Marlow's heat set double braid delivers industry-leading strength and low stretch characteristics to produce a long-lasting robust and UV resistant rope. Suitable for almost every application on board from Halyards to Sheets and Control Lines.
Easy splicing retains the strength of the rope over conventional knots and removes the need for heavy and bulky knots at the clew or head of the sail. Flexibility and a soft feel ensure easy handling around the boat.
