Yachtmaster is a premium double-braid polyester rope with a softer hand thanks to its loose sheath. It splices easily and offers high strength, excellent abrasion resistance and dependable UV and chemical stability.
Our Yachtmaster rope brings together strength and ease of use for cruising and racing sailors. This double-braid rope uses a high-tenacity polyester core and cover and is constructed with a slightly looser sheath for a softer feel. The design makes splicing straightforward and ensures the rope remains supple and easy to handle. Yachtmaster delivers high abrasion resistance and stands up well to UV and most chemicals. It’s ideal for sheets, halyards and control lines, giving sailors the confidence of reliable grip and strength on deck.
If you appreciate a line that feels good in the hand and performs without fuss, Yachtmaster is a trusted companion on the water.
