Appropriate sizing may vary depending on boat type, anchoring conditions, and other factors.</p> <p><strong>Sizing Table and Breaking Strengths:</strong><br> 3/8" diameter rope: 4000 lbs; for boats up to 27'<br> 1/2" diameter rope: 5200 lbs; for boats up to 36'<br> 5/8" diameter rope: 9000 lbs; for boats up to 45'<br> 3/4" diameter rope: 11200 lbs; for boats up to 54'</p>
