Folks, can you tell me what I should buy for a new main sheet? I purchased lines from Defender many years ago for my Catalina 36... but looking at the site now there are so many choices. I am a weekend warrior, so really looking for that balance of performance, cost, and durability.

Thanks,

-Richard

If I had replaced mine, it would've been with 3/8" New England Ropes "Regatta" polyester single-braid. I like the soft but nubby "hand", the easy coiling, and the reduced tendency for coils to tangle with each other.
