In this video we are having a look at 3 dinghy mainsheet ropes which we recommend here at Sailing Chandlery.
There is a huge choice of ropes available on the market, different materials, specifications and then you've got to try and choose a colour.
This video gives you three mainsheet rope options which can be used on any dinghy.
Evolution sheet rope has a braided HT polyester cover and lightweight braided multi-fillament polypropylene core.
The construction makes this a perfect sheet rope with flexible rope that is lightweight and strong. The rope floats and also doesn't take on water.
This Evolution sheet rope is available in 6mm 7mm 8mm diameters.
Gottifredi Maffioli swiftcord is perfect for ropes which are constantly adjusted as it's soft on the hands with hard wearing capabilities.
The rope is a mix of a single braid Dyneema SK78 rope with a special non slip fibre weaved together into a rope with no core, also known as a hollow braid.
Because the rope is a hollow braid you can feed a dyneema core up inside easily to add a taper or perform various rope tricks.
This rope has been popular with top sailors on high performance dinghies and catamarans for years.
The Gottifredi Maffioli Swiftcord Rope is available in 4mm 5mm 6mm 7mm 8mm diameters.
This dinghy lite sheet rope features a 12 strand PU coated dyneema SK78 blended core along with a 16 plait cover made from dyneema and a special non-slip fibre.
The construction of this rope makes it flexible, strong and easy to taper - add the benefits of the high grip cover and you've got the perfect sheet rope.
The Evolution Dinghy Lite Rope is available in 6mm 7mm 8mm diameters
These ropes are sold by the meter, if you were to order a quantity of 5 you will receive one continuous 5 metre length of this rope.

Nice-looking bung, all in one piece. No more looking for the bung when you have let it drain from the last time, and bought this to create a second drain socket in my Solo.
They have good paddings
It fits exactly fine to laser pico. Straps are very usefull. Hole at the back helps you store your upper mast easily under the cover. Looks very durable. Delivery was very fast. Thanks

Usual harken good stuff
Easy to find, quick dispatch, on the boat now.
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.
Fantastic price for first class quality
They work well
Fantastic product. Toasty feel
Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
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!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
