The winter break (for most) gives the perfect opportunity to get those halyard ropes on your cruiser or yacht replaced.
Sailing Chandlery have a good range of polyester and Dyneema ropes available which are suitable to be used for cruiser and yacht halyard ropes.
By far one of the most popular yacht ropes is braid on braid polyester rope.
Braid on braid rope is perfect for mainsheets, jib sheets, control lines and halyard ropes on larger boats including cruisers and yachts. It is good on the hands and is easy to splice.
Sailing Chandlery have this type of rope in stock from 6mm through to 12mm diameters. Want to brighten up the ropes on your boat? The Braid on braid comes in a melange colour also which makes them stand out more than the standard white and fleck ropes.
Sailing Chandlery have a massive range of dyneema ropes in stock, everything from 1mm through to 8mm. We can also source larger diameters for you and would be happy to provide a quote.
Dyneema® is an UHMwPE (Ultra High Molecular weight Polyethylene) fibre developed by DSM in the Netherlands little over 20 years ago. An ingredient material in many of our ropes, Dyneema® is light weight and renowned as "The World's Strongest FibreTM". So what makes Dyneema® so special?
It's popular across all types of sailing, especially in racing yachts.
Here's a selection of our most popular dyneema products for cruiser and yacht halyard ropes:
If you're also keen to replace your sheets then here are some dyneema products which would be suitable:
Looking for a new spliced halyard rope?
Simply send us an email to info@sailingchandlery.com with the length and diameter of the rope you need, the type of rope and if you want a hard or a soft eye in the end and we can give you a price.
We appreciate that the above information provides you with a number of options. If you want to talk through what would be most suitable for you and your boat then please feel free to call our team on 01268 222 912.
Worn these for a few races now and they have been excellent. Really high performing. They are grippy and super supportive even without using the zhik toe straps. I’ve raved about them so much that my crew and colleagues at the club have now also bought the same ones
Ordered this when my son's training sail got rippd in action. Pleased to find it here 20% cheaper than anywhere else and as always delivered correctly and in great time. Thankyou
The bag is well made and large enough for halyards as well as other items. I have used the 3M fixings but these are not really adequate and so the bags will need to be screwed in place.
I would buy again.
Delivery was on time. The O rings fitted the hatches on my topper topaz. No issues excellent service
I ordered the hiking pads for my son who was very pleased with them. The order was delivered within a few days. I’ve ordered items before from sailing chandlery and have not been disappointed with the service I received. Thank you
Loads of space in this bag for all of my kit, extra pockets are very helpful and the compartment inside keeps my dry and wet kit apart. Would recommend.
Not actually for a Topper but for a sailing canoe I have built. Pleased with the quality, delivered promptly, just the job thank you!
I’m using this with the Clamcleat CL211 and they pair perfectly. Strong and with the stiffness that I was looking for. Really pleased with the purchase and excellent quick service.
These work fantastically. Used with 6mm rope they grip instantly. Easy to adjust in small amounts and lock in with no effort at all. I was concerned that when the pressure comes off that the rope would release, but this isn’t the case at all. Really pleased with the purchase and rapid delivery.
Just what we needed, bought a second hand Topper, needed new ropes, sorted..Fitting instructions could be clearer for novices.
Very speedy delivery, and the special short length is just what I ordered. Ordering couldn’t have been simpler. Excellent service.
Harken block
Bought when I changed the wheels - arrived well wrapped with the wheels and on time. Easy to fit quality product. Good service
Easy to fit and seem to be robust as a replacement for my Trolley wheels. Arrived as promised very well wrapped. Worth checking if you need new washers and clips to add to your order.
Though not cheap this control line swivel block is just the job. Well worth the money imho.
Save up to 40%on your next order.
