A long-wearing, flexible and easy-to-handle rope that has greater strength and better abrasion resistance than other three-strand nylon line.
The combination of premium-grade nylon, four-stage construction, and a special marine coating results in improved handling, greater chafe resistance, minimal hardening and longer life.
New England's Three Strand Nylon is identified by a fine red tracer and is available in either white or black. Black is a special order. Please call 1-800-828-4687.
How much line do I need?
The size and type of line you use will depend on a number of factors including the size and weight of your boat. In general, lengths for fore and aft dock lines are usually two-thirds of the boat length, and spring lines are usually equal to the length of the boat. The Size Selection Guide provides a guideline for selecting the right diameter line.
