This is a high performance spinnaker sheet line for the Thistle sailboat. Developed in coordination with Thistle class experts, this is a continuous sheet, with the center running through the boat and the ends attached to the sail. Our 6mm SSR version is made from 6mm diameter Alpha Ropes SSR, a single braid blend of Spectra and Cordura which makes this line both durable and soft in the hand. Very similar to Maffiloli switfcord. This is our recommended option for light air settings where the lowest weight is preferred, or for those who like 6mm diameter sheets. This sheet may be too thin for some trimmers in heavy air. Both ends finished with end whips.
