I see Chuck posted a response just as I was asking the question below. Sorry
to have this cross in the ether...
That said, I'd be interested in your thoughts as to a source for Argus..

I'm hoping Chuck or others can chime in on this - At Cajun Ropes, they show the
XLE for halyards, and have a reasonable price for the halyards pre-made. How
does the XLE compare with New England Ropes Sta-Set X as far as elongation and
the feel is concerned?
I find the Sta-Set X to be stiff, though not untenable on our boat currently.
If you would recommend the Argus, do you know someone who would premake the
halyards to the length I want at a reasonably low price?
Thanks!

Cajun uses Novabraid Rope for their sheets and Halyards. Novabraid makes a
blended Spectra core rope called Argus that is less stretchy than polyester
double braid. It’s what I use for halyards on Half Magic. XLE is my choice
for jib sheets and Novalite HP for Spinnaker Sheets. All Canadian made
too!Full disclosure, I work for Novatec Braids Ltd in marketing and product
development...

Subject: Stus-List New lines and hayalards Hello everyone, I'm thinking of
replacing all of the sheets and halyards on Invictus, hoping for some insight.
Dennis of Touche posted a note about color designation that I thought was
interesting but I forgot to copy it. Looking for recommendations of size type
and color of lines and halyards for a cruising sailboat that may enter a fun
club race once in a while. Thanks for any help, Cheers. Tom PowerInvictusC&C
