My anchor lines are 9/16 three-strand nylon. The halyards
are 3/8" three-strand nylon. Not the same thing. The halyards
are combination wire rope and fiber rope. The nylon tail is
only a foot or two long when the sails are hoisted and used
to go around the cleat or winch and cleat. It's a simple and
servicable set-up. You should consider the same.
