Comments about Samson Rope AmSteel Blue Dyneema SK 75 Single Braid:
Not only is AmSteel extemely strong for the weight, it was incredibly easy to splice. With the ability to easily splice the rope, it makes it easier to utilize AmSteel in many ways. Running rigging, standing rigging, and lifeline replacement are very easy to do with the appropriatly chosen AmSteel line.

Comments about Samson Rope AmSteel Blue Dyneema SK 75 Single Braid:
I use the 3/16 Amsteel to replace the steel lifelines on my 26 ft sailboat. It's easier to inspect and replace than steel cable and no meat hooks. The crew hikes hard and puts a lot of strain and wear on lifelines. The Amsteel is IMO, far superior, with good UV resistance and longevity of use.

Comments about Samson Rope AmSteel Blue Dyneema SK 75 Single Braid:
I have purchased Amsteel from multiple stores without any problem. It's incredibly strong, lightweight, and easy to splice. I ordered different lengths of black, green, and red from West Marine. When eye splicing, I noticed that the coloring dye was coming off on my hands. When I put the line on my boat, the dye immediately began to bleed off as soon as the line got wet in freshwater. Now I have red, black, and green stains on my deck, hull, and sails! What use is a marine product that is not waterproof and stains everything that it comes into contact with? Avoid the dyed versions of Amsteel at all cost.
