Hi, If you go with wire, you can save a ton of money by buying from a cable and chain vendor. I replaced my lifelines 4 years ago. I purchased suncor quick attach hardware from Defender and wire from Quality Chain & Cable. I paid $.95/ft for 3/16 -5/16 7x7 Type 316 PVC Coated Lifeline (Defender price is $2.09/ft for same wire) and $.80/ft for 3/16 1x19 Type 316 Standing Rigging.

I also have one of their mooring "Grab & Go devices, and LOVE it. The Admiral is also a big fan. :-) Bill Bina On 8/29/2013 11:38 AM, Al Serrato wrote: > Thanks for the suggestions.
