[quote=rattlenhum]Not sure where you were looking, but the Hobie parts diagram calls for ~62 feet of 1/4" line (not shock cord). (This larger length is for newer tramps that are double grommeted down the center which reduces stress on each grommet.) I actually use 3/16"....don't remember exactly what line, but it is a quality low/prestretch.....Kevlar core maybe?. (Buy extra.....it's good for trap lines, etc. as well). I've been sailing/racing the H16 for 20+ years.....seen a bunch of 'em including the rock stars'. Only seen a handful with sad, sagging shock cord laced tramps. Shock cord will stretch….I haven't had to retighten my line lacing in many years.
Edit.........Try browsing Hobie's H16 Support pages and forums. Lots of great info, including a support document (and lots of threads) regarding tramp installation/tightening.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by rattlenhum on Aug 24, 2019 - 09:29 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
