The big unknown is how quickly the synthetic lines degrade from UV. CS Johnson says the line should be replaced every 3 years. Sounds ridiculous!
I'm amazed at how tough Amsteel is. I had a 4 foot piece of 1/8" Amsteel left over from my jack lines (I threaded it inside tubular dacron webbing) so I used it up at the bow to lash my anchor shank down. After three years of constant UV exposure and incredible chafe from having a couple hundred feet of chain rolling over it all the time, it's still strong and serviceable.
