Default Dinghy tow line

I have used Wellington yellow Poly braid and Yellow Poly from Lowes and
Home Despot and I swear I cannot tell any diference. You do need to
change a dinghy painter out every other season at least because it will
not stand up to UV but 20' of half inch is only about $8.

What is the best line for towing a dinghy?

I have seen somewhere on the net a multifilament polypropylene dinghy tow
rope that looks a lot like braided line but it is poly and floats. Assume
this would be good. But can't seem to find it. If I recall it was yellow
with a red thread,

Jerry
