I need to replace the genoa halyard on my boat and am wondering about the 
disadvantage of wire-rope over high tech line.  The original spec line is 
wire-rope.  From what I have priced, wire-rope from APS is cheaper than a 
dyneema type very low stretch line (Warp Speed/Endura) and about the same as 
somewhat low stretch line (VPC).  I see the advantages of wire-rope as price 
and essentially no stretch.  The only disadvantage I see is a bit more weight 
aloft, but as a percentage of the total weight aloft it seems insignificant.  
Am I missing something?  Dave
