Cruising Halyards

Halyards on Cruising Yachts are broadly divided into two categories:

100% Polyester Lines with approximately 4%– 5% stretch

LIROS Braid on Braid EVO is the new generation, lower stretch, high-load version of LIROS Braid on Braid and by far the most popular rope for all running rigging applications.

LIROS Herkules is the next upgrade featuring extra durability for extended cruising.

Marlowbraid is the Marlow equivalent to Braid on Braid, with a realtively low stretch characteristic, but not such a firm, round construction.

Marlow Blue Ocean® Doublebraid is a braid on braid construction manufactured from 100% recycled rPET polyester sourced entirely from waste plastic bottles - the sustainable option

Cruising Dyneema Lines constructed from a Dyneema Core and a Polyester Outer Jacket with approximately 2%-3% stretch

LIROS Dynamic Plus is by far the most popular line in this category with an SK78 core, extra inner plait construction for maintaining a stable form under load and 32plait close weave abrasion resistant polyester cover with several colour coded and full colour options. Marlow D2 Competition was the nearest equivalent to Dynamic Plus but it has been discontinued and replaced by Marlow D2 Club which has a lower specification SK35 Dyneema core, and has now been discontinued as well. Marlow are planning to launch a new cruising dyneema line for 2022.

Wire spliced to Rope is still available and a good option if it proves problematic to change the sheaves in the mast Stainless steel 7 x 19 KOS wire spliced to LIROS Braid on Braid or Herkules - combines the zero stretch and longevity of wire with the benefits of handling top quality rope tails
