Sea-Dog Double Braided Dock Line 3/8 in x 20 ft Gold
Sea-Dog Double Braided Dock Line 3/8 in x 20 ft Gold — Product description
This is the Sea-Dog double braided nylon dock line you tie off and forget about. 3/8 inch by 20 feet, gold and white with a reflective tracer woven in so it catches your light at night. The 12 inch soft eye splice drops right over a cleat or piling, and 3800 pounds of breaking strength means it'll hold your boat without complaint.
A good dock line is one of those things you don't think about until you need it. The Sea-Dog 3/8 inch double braided nylon line is built to be that kind of quiet workhorse. Double braided means a braided core inside a braided cover, so it stays flexible in your hands, resists kinking, and holds up to the sun and salt better than a cheap twisted line. The nylon has some natural stretch too, which takes the shock out of wakes and wind gusts instead of jerking hard on your cleats.
You get a 12 inch spliced soft eye on one end that drops straight over a piling or cleat, no knot to tie. The reflective tracer woven through the line is a nice touch when you're coming in after dark and sweeping a light across the dock. At 20 feet it's a solid all-around length for most bow, stern, and spring line duty on boats up to the mid 20 foot range.
Rated at 825 pounds working load and 3800 pounds breaking strength. Gold and white, and it ships in a clamshell pack.

Frequently asked questions
What size boat is this dock line good for?
The 3/8 inch diameter is a common all-around size for boats up into the mid 20 foot range. It carries an 825 pound working load and a 3800 pound breaking strength.
Does it have an eye splice?
Yes. One end has a 12 inch spliced soft eye, so you can drop it right over a cleat or piling without tying a knot. The other end is bare for cleating off on the boat.
What is the reflective tracer for?
It's a reflective strand woven into the line so it lights up when you sweep a flashlight or spotlight across the dock at night. That makes your lines easier to spot in the dark.
Is this nylon or polyester?
It's premium double braided nylon. Nylon has natural stretch, which absorbs shock from wakes and wind so the load doesn't snap hard against your cleats.
What color is it?
Gold and white. It ships in a clamshell package.
