Please Help Me ID an Eight-Strand Rode

I'm looking at a 1/2" "brait"--plaited 8-strand nylon. One of the 8 strands has a yellow tracer.
Do you know if that would be Yale brait? Or another maker's?
(Yale's current website photo shows an all-white rope.)
Don't want to trust my boat to and off-brand rode.
Thanks.
John V.

It's Yale Brait. Most of their rope has a yellow tracer, according to what the nice folks at Yale told me today.
I forgot to mention the prize for the first correct answer--a nice cold bottle of Bass ale. Better luck to you all next time.
