Sea-Dog Double Braided Nylon Dock Line 3/8 in x 20 ft
Sea-Dog Double Braided Nylon Dock Line 3/8 in x 20 ft — Product description
This Sea-Dog dock line is 3/8-inch double braided nylon, cut to 20 feet with a 12-inch spliced soft eye on one end. It handles an 825-pound working load and 3,800-pound breaking strength, and the nylon shrugs off abrasion, mildew, oil, rot, and UV. Gold and white, so it looks sharp cleated off at the dock.
If you're setting up dock lines for a small to mid-size boat, this Sea-Dog line covers the basics without any fuss. It's 3/8-inch double braided nylon, 20 feet long, with a 12-inch spliced soft eye already worked into one end. Loop that eye over a piling or a cleat and make off the other end at the boat. Simple.
Double braid gives you a line that's easy on the hands and holds its shape. The nylon stretches just enough to absorb the surge when a wake rolls through, which takes the shock off your cleats and hardware. And it's built to live outside. Abrasion, mildew, oil, rot, and UV don't do much to it, so a season in the sun and salt won't leave it stiff and chalky.
The 825-pound working load and 3,800-pound breaking strength suit runabouts, day boats, and smaller cruisers. The gold and white finish looks clean at the slip. Keep a couple aboard as spares. You'll be glad you did.

Frequently asked questions
What size boat is this dock line for?
The 825-pound working load and 3,800-pound breaking strength suit runabouts, day boats, and smaller cruisers. For larger or heavier boats, step up to a bigger diameter.
Does it come with an eye splice?
Yes. One end has a 12-inch spliced soft eye, ready to loop over a piling or cleat. The other end is free to make off at the boat.
What's the difference between the working load and breaking strength?
The working load limit, 825 pounds here, is the safe everyday load. Breaking strength, 3,800 pounds, is where the line actually fails. Always rig to the working load, not the breaking point.
Will it hold up to sun and salt water?
It's built for it. The nylon resists abrasion, mildew, oil, rot, and UV, so it stays flexible through a season outside instead of going stiff and chalky.
