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
