Group:
I am considering replacing my 7/16" "low stretch" (NER) halyards for both main and Jib with something that is "no stretch"...... We raced last Wednesday in 22-25kts and both the Main and Jib stretched so as to make the jib trim really edgy. The Cunningham made up the difference in the main, but we finally broke the jib shackle and had to route a spare in a hurry...... We recovered OK, but I think better halyards are in order. The big problem is the "sticker shock" for Dyneema or similar material.... two halyards using Dyneema SK90 estimated cost is near $1000. Has anyone faced this issue and how did you resolve it. Anyone have any suggestions on "reasonable priced" high tech line? Thanks, Ron C. Impromptu C&C 38MKIIC ..'77
