I've been considering a Dyneema/StaSet main halyard for the same reason but I
will talk with APSLtd instead of Cajun.
To switch to an all rope, one size halyard, I'd have to change out the sheave
and sheave box. Not sure I want to spend an hour cutting out the opening in
the mast to accommodate a wider sheave box.
