I know nylon is generally the recommended material for mooring/dock lines.
But my local swindlery catalogue lists various mooring/docking lines as polypropylene, polyethylene, double braided multifilament, high tenacity multifilament, low tenacity multifilament, high level PE resins...
Which is which? Some are double the price for what appears to be the same thing.
I'm looking to use them when I'm rafted up with other boats - a bit of elasticity seems to work well.
Any advice?
