Ideal line for Aries

[Bob Pingel]

I'll preface this with the fact that I have little experience with windvanes, but lots of experience with small tackle systems and experimentation with different types of rope.

I have had good experience with the single braid HM blended ropes -- the original was Maffioli SwiftCord, but there are several others out now. These ropes are strong, inelastic, and run nicely through blocks. Pricing is sort of medium.

Eyesplicing these can be tough - there is not a lot of interior room for tucking -- but they do hold knots fairly well. I have good luck with multiple brummels as well.
