Re: braided nylon anchor rope

You did not say what size line you need but Defender has a special right now on 1/2" brait. This is good quality stuff and works well.

Yale Cordage Nylon Brait 8-Strand Anchor Line with Spliced Nylon Thimble

The Nylon thimble is a bit of a turn off for me but the price is good. You can easily replace the thimble.

Re: braided nylon anchor rope

Why are you considering braided vs. three strand?

As far as suppliers go, Defender.com has good prices on pretty much everything.

Re: braided nylon anchor rope

Thanks for the quick responses, after reading another thread on here about splicing rope to chain It made sense to me. It looks to be a more secure connection.
