Compatibility Of Dynex Dux With Ss Wire

[John Stone]

I continue to be intrigued by dynex dux for use as standing rigging. Given the fact that we hope to do significant offshore sailing, after we complete our refit, I have some hesitancy with going exclusively with dynex dux. The boat is 16,000 full keel, Bermuda rigged double headsail sloop, 42” bowsprit, double spreader mast.

Question: Can I mix dynex dux and wire for standing rigging? By that, I mean, if I have ss wire for the standing rigging are there concerns I should be aware of if I desired to substitute dux for the forestay and aft intermediates? I would also use dux, or some other appropriate synthetic line for the runners. The rest of the sanding rigging would be wire.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
