If you return to your slip after dark, these reflective dock lines will stand out to the beam of your flashlight, lantern or headlamp.

Nylon double braid dock lines have reflective tracers woven through the cover of the rope for optimal visibility and increased safety in low light situations. 

These reflective dock lines are the strongest and easiest-to-handle you can buy and they stay flexible throughout their service life. The core and cover is constructed from the highest quality treated nylon.

The combination of high-grade marine nylon, special torque-balanced construction, and a unique stabilization process produces a long-wearing, easy-to-handle line that resists kinking. Our double braid line offers controlled elongation and excellent abrasion resistance. Double braid lines stretch slightly less but are stronger than three-strand lines. 

  • Ready made with professional 12" eye splice and bitter end heat sealed and whipped.
  • High elongation; stretches 6.5% at 20% of breaking strength
  • Torque-free non-hockling; stays flexible and very easy to handle
  • Very little degradation from UV; can be used outside over long term if inspected regularly
  • Manufactured with premium high tenacity nylon fibers and conforms to MIL-R-24050E

What Diameter and How Much Line?

Diameter: The size, length and type of line will depend on a number of factors including the length, weight and type of boat. The following information is intended as a guide only. Docking in exposed waters, strong winds or tides may require larger or additional lines.

Length: Transient dock lines are typically about 2/3 of the boat's length when used on the bow and stern. Spring lines should be equal to your boat's length.
