<h3>About Robline: Where Ropemaking Heritage Meets Modern Performance</h3><p><strong>Robline</strong> is one of the world's foremost names in marine rope and cordage, bringing together centuries of manufacturing tradition and cutting-edge materials science to serve sailors and water sports enthusiasts at every level. Robline is the water sports brand of the Austrian family-owned company TEUFELBERGER, which boasts over 230 years of experience in rope manufacturing. That deep heritage informs every product the brand makes today.</p><p>In the 1990s, TEUFELBERGER acquired FSE, the German yachting brand, and the yachting line segment of Roblon, the Danish rope manufacturer — and even before that, TEUFELBERGER had already been manufacturing synthetic ropes for several decades. This convergence of expertise ultimately gave rise to the modern Robline brand, now widely recognized as a specialist leader in the sailing and yachting rope market.</p><h3>Engineered With and For Sailors</h3><p>What sets Robline apart is its close collaboration with the athletes who depend on its products most. The crucial connection between the sea and your boats and equipment, regardless of size or type, is often the ropes and running rigging — that's why the most successful athletes, from Olympic teams to high-performance sailing classes, trust Robline ropes, which are developed and tested in collaboration with top athletes to ensure the highest performance.</p><p>In the development of new products, Robline continues to maintain close contact with regatta sailors who compete in the most challenging races, with results from close cooperation with racing teams in the RC44, TP52, GC32, Extreme 40, M32, and Maxi classes clearly documenting their successful commitment to the racing segment. Crucially, the insights gained at the elite level trickle down to every product in the lineup. Direct feedback from pro sailors in combination with Robline's long-standing, in-depth ropemaking expertise has spawned first-rate cordage for recreational sailors as well — pros set the standards, and every watersports enthusiast can look forward to reliable, innovative, and modern cordage.</p><h3>A Complete Range of Marine Lines</h3><p>Robline's catalog covers the full spectrum of on-water needs. From halyards to sheets and dock lines to tow ropes, the brand provides essential lines for sailing, powerboating, and kitesurfing — including main sheets, jib sheets, halyards, control lines, anchor lines, control bar lines, flying lines, and safety lines.</p><p>The company integrates cutting-edge technology and innovative materials, such as Dyneema&reg;, Vectran&reg;, and Technora&reg;, to produce ropes that excel in the most demanding environments. As part of Teufelberger's fibre rope division, Robline develops double braid, single braid, and high-modulus Dyneema&reg; constructions engineered for controlled elongation, abrasion resistance, and long service life.</p><p>For those looking to outfit their vessel with performance-proven <a href="/14857-robline-rope-cordage-202454">rope and cordage</a>, Robline offers a product for every application — from dinghy racing lines to mooring warps for bluewater cruisers. Robline is also the official supplier of lines for the most active high-performance sailing classes, making it one of the most trusted names on the water worldwide.</p><h3>Sustainability and Community</h3><p>Robline values not only the challenges that sailing presents, but also the community that has built up around water sports — supporting young and enthusiastic sailors and ambitious teams in every class. The brand also acknowledges its environmental responsibilities and actively works to reduce its impact on both local and global ecosystems, reflecting values increasingly important to the modern sailor.</p>

Product Details

The Robline MT-OPTI is a specialized double-tapered mainsheet designed specifically for Optimist sailboat rigging. This high-performance line features a unique asymmetrical taper design with thinner sections at both ends and a thicker center section, providing superior grip where you need it most while reducing friction through blocks and sheaves.

Double Taper Design:

This sheet features an asymmetrical configuration with one longer taper and one shorter taper. The long taper runs through the blocks on the boom, while the shorter taper runs through the cockpit sole blocks, optimizing performance throughout the entire sheeting system.

Advanced Construction:

Constructed with a blend of Dyneema® and PA/PES (polyamide/polyester) yarns, this mainsheet delivers exceptional performance characteristics including excellent abrasion resistance, extra low stretch, improved elongation under load, and outstanding grip for precise sail control.

Key Features:

  • Double tapered design with asymmetrical configuration for optimal performance
  • Dyneema® core with polyamide/polyester blend for high strength and low stretch
  • Reduced weight compared to traditional uniform-diameter sheets
  • Superior abrasion resistance for long-lasting durability
  • Better handling and improved grip for young sailors
  • Reduced friction at tapered ends improves sheeting efficiency

Technical Specifications:

  • Color: Blue/Silver
  • Total Length: 23 feet (7 meters)
  • Three-section construction
  • Section diameters: 0.24"/0.35"/0.24" (6mm/9mm/6mm)
  • Section lengths: 4.9'/8.2'/9.8' (1.5m/2.5m/3m)

Sold individually. Specifically engineered for Optimist class sailboats.
