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.

I rang to request some advice on replacement parts for my dinghy and was very impressed with the excellent advice and efficient delivery of the required parts. Many thanks
Great product, safely packaged, delivered on time, at a competitive price. One more thing - the person on the end of the phone is an actual person, informative, helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. What more could you ask for.
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Cover arrived after three days and is well made and completely covers the boat boom up . The straps and clips all work fine. Good product.
My local chandlery were unable to supply a white inspection hatch and so it was amatter of looking online. Sailing Chandlery had the cover I needed in stock at a good price and delivery. I had never used them before but the service I received was excellent with the delivery on time and the hatch is now fitted.
I will definitely return, especially with the discounts on offer. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Always happy with my orders from Sailing Chandlery. They are quick to post and very helpful when I have had a question.
Jason delivered the boat on time at Hayling Island Sailing Club. The boat was new and all the spars were in perfect condition. Jason came to pick up the boat and return the deposit which I gave at the time of the delivery. Every interaction with Andrew and Jason were handled very professionally. I will recommend to any sailor Sailing Chandlery in the future. I really appreciated how easy it was to charter this boat. Thank you very much. Jacques Kerrest
Prompt delivery, with helpful updates and time slot spot on. Perfect new sail at a great price and the number fixing service is well worth it. It even won its first race! Thank you.
I needed GBR letters for the ILCA Europeans and they arrived by the next post.
I made a mistake on my order and it was put right at zero cost to me ! Amazing !
I’ll certainly be back
