1 - Main halyard

A main halyard should have a low elongation. This is required for properly trimming your sail: when the wind increases, you want your main sail to stay flat. For cruising yachts we recommend the ropes below. For cruising polyester ropes or ropes with SK38 Dyneema^® or Stirotex fibres are a good choice. More demanding cruisers should go for ropes with less elongation. Ropes with SK78 Dyneema^® cores are recommended in this case.
