I keep one set attached to my dock cut to fit my boat with rubber stubber, and then an extra on board. Is there any advantage to paying the extra price for braided lines? Yes. They roll up nicely, and they feel much better on the hands. But don't they get "picked" by splinters on the dock? Never noticed the problem. Never even heard about it until just now. -- John H |
