Getting my boat ready for a trip, I decided I need jacklines.
Besides, they will give the kids something to clip to when they insist

material are not good as I have seen that material degrade very
quickly in sunlight, so I used 3/8 braid. Ajny thoughts on this?
Hmm., flat webbing: terylene/polyester? Nylon? Polypropylene?

Still, round braid shows less surface to sunlight, for the same
