Hi, I will be replacing my tramp on my 1984 Hobie 16' and want to use the correct line.
I wanted to check some details I have seen online.
Need about 60' of low stretch polyester line
~20' - Middle
~15' - Aft (times 2 ?)
Total of 50', but get 10' extra so you have some to pull on & tie off
Seems that the standard diam is 1/4", but some folks recommend 3/8"
Purchase at West Marine?
Thank you for your help!
Hobie 16' - New Trampoline Line?

WM is the "store of last resort"
i would order from APS, Murray's, saltydog, or best of all.. your local sailing shop before i purchase from WM,
they charge a premium for their stock -
