Running Rigging
New England Ropes Defines Performance
And delivers the winning edge! Choose from a selection of strong, low stretch and lightweight lines that will improve the performance of your boat, help to reduce weight aloft, and allow you to use smaller diameter, easier-to-handle lines.
High Strength - Low Stretch
Halyards, sheets, guys, running backstays and check stays require a line with very little stretch, whereas mainsheets, topping lifts, travelers, and boom vangs can sustain some stretch.
Please contact American Rigging Supply, Inc. to insure you're choosing the best line for your needs.
