Dynice Dux alternatives

Hi all,

Just learned that the order I placed two weeks ago for my standing rigging ropes has stalled because the distributor has no 11 mm Dynice Dux and does not to expect to have any for “months”. They do have the 13 mm I need, which is a start.

So, with that in mind, I’m wondering if there are equivalents to Dynice Dux to consider in place of the 11 mm.

(Yes I could do the whole lot in 13 mm, but it would really do nasty stuff to the project cost, not to mention the additional windage.)

(Edit: just noticed there is a 12 mm option, will check that with the distie tomorrow.)


Any recommendations?

Matt

New England Ropes has STS in 11mm: https://www.neropes.com/products/gra...detail/hsr-75/
Also, have you contacted Colligo Marine? They have Dynice Dux but call it Colligo Dux I think.
