From a performance perspective strength and stretch are most important and the higher strength to weight ratio of ropes with Dyneema means that at least one size smaller can be used e.g. An 8mm or 10mm D2 Racing can be used instead of 12mm Marlowbraid. However, when choosing any line, it is important to achieve a balance between performance and the ability to handle the line effectively – if the rope is too thin, the crew may find it more difficult to hold on to and your existing deck gear may struggle to work with it. 53
