Review on GOLBERG Nylon Paramax Utility Cord – 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch Diameter – 5 Lengths & 20+ Color Options by Kevin Woods

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bad for use at sea; probably a good lasso

I bought a 5/16 inch rope. It is too stiff for marine use because: (A) it does not tie knots well. (B) It doesn't fit snugly against the cleat so it stays in place even when not under constant tension. (C) It's not soft enough to lay in storage compartments or hang on the included hook. I know their policy is "Full refund if not satisfied" but I'm not sure I'll ask them about it. I seem to have made my own unfortunate decision here.

Pros
  • That's great
Cons
  • Almost never
