ROBLINE RACING SHEET 5mm BLUE 
Quantity in Basket: None
Code: 39-1105BL
Price: $0.79
Unit: FOOT
FSE Robline racing sheet stays lightweight, wet or dry, and it won't tangle! Robline is a composite single braid of DyneemaŽ SK 75 with nylon added to each strand. DyneemaŽ gives extreme abrasionresistance and very low stretch, while nylon adds a nice feel and good handling properties. The unique braided construction makes the line stay round, even under extreme loads. Ideal for multi-part mainsheet systems, spinnaker sheets and control lines. Colors are blends with white. Sizes run about 15% oversize (e.g. marked 7mm = 5/16"+; marked 9mm = 3/8"+). Sold per foot. Spool: 656' (200m).
"I have sailed catamarans for about 5 years and raced with a semi-pro catamaran sailing team for the last three years. I've raced around the cans with the best of them and sailed in the 2007 Tybee 500. As an experienced crew member on a modern, high performance Nacra 20 catamaran equipped with a large asymmetrical spinnaker I have learned that one of the most important things that enables the crew to hoist the chute swiftly and with ease is the right choice of line for the halyard. Switching to Robline racing sheet for the spinnaker halyard on our Narca 20 has made all the difference in my ability to set the chute fast. Robline racing sheet is soft in your hands with lots of grip all the way through but it does not twist or knot up easily. Some lines tend to lose their shape after a lot of hard use and develop hard edges and feel almost square in your hands but this halyard has shows no signs of wear or loss of shape to date. I highly recommend Robline racing sheet to anyone looking for a long lasting line that feels great in your hands."
