3 Strand Nylon will suffice if the mooring set up will not allow the boat to swing through 360 degrees in the tide.

N.B. Use only Anchorplait for swinging moorings - 3 strand lines may 'cockle' when the 'swing' turns against the lay of the rope.
Cockling occurs when a fixed 3 strand construction warp is forced to rotate against the direction of the twisted lay, opening up the strands until they distort into 'ears'
This will eventually be the case if a yacht continually swings around it's mooring 'the wrong way'.
You can sample this with a soft piece of small diameter 3 strand rope - Twist it tighter and and the rope construction tightens - Twist it the other way and the strands will soon deform and the rope will go completely out of shape, compromising the performance of the warp, with the distinct possibility of failure through rupture.
Video Demonstration of Rope Cockling
This may not look like it can happen in a large diameter strop.
When a large diameter nylon warp is first introduced into contact with seawater and used in anger the fibres shrink, the lay of the rope tightens and the end result is a stiff rope akin to an iron bar that doesn't look like it could possibly unravel but it certainly can in conditions where the force of the rotational twist in the unlaying direction is both strenuous and persistent.
Cockling cannot happen with Anchorplait - It doesn't matter which way the rope is twisted, it only tightens the lay.
Look after our splicing as well as your rope:
The 3 strand splice itself is also prone to eventually unravel if the set up issues are not addressed - once the rope has distorted as far as physically possible without rupture the rotational force may be transferred to the splice with disastrous consequences.
When you have chosen the rope construction and the diameter, you can get an instant quote online, including all the splicing and finishing, anti chafe and compensator options.
