Re: Newfangled "Elastic" Dock Lines
If you know how splice an eye on three strand then just buy line off a spool. Eye on double braid is a bit more difficult but doable. I make up all mooring and anchor pennants for our summer fleet of small boats using 3-strand. On ROXY, I use 1” dynema but we are too heavy for stretchy stuff.
