The stretch in twisted nylon soaks up dock surge and protects your cleats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the dock line you tie off with and stop thinking about. Sea-Dog builds it from premium nylon in a twisted 3-strand construction, so it stretches a little under load and soaks up the shock when your boat surges against the dock. That give is what protects your cleats and your hull on a windy afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get 3\/8 inch line, 20 feet long, in black. There's a 12 inch eye hand-spliced into one end with five tucks, so it drops right over a piling or a dock cleat and holds. The nylon is abrasion resistant, which matters where the line rubs a chock or a rough edge day after day. Working load limit is 815 pounds and breaking strength is 3750 pounds, plenty for most runabouts, center consoles, and smaller cruisers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a good size for a 20 to 30 foot boat as a bow, stern, or spring line. Buy a couple and keep a spare in the locker.
