@boattrainingonline6561 I had no idea the size of the bite I took when I decided I wanted to be a private captain, which is to say, responsibly captain my own vessel.

As you mentioned there are marine websites that have guides to sizing, and the ones I've seen usually go by the length if not the weight of the boat. The bigger the boat, the bigger diameter of line you need. Obviously this would be line that you would use for mooring. Towing, whether it be for recreation or another boat, will use different lines.

@Boat Training Online. Good video. I sailed ocean going ships (42KDWT to 240KDWT tankers) for years. We used to call manila (less than 1/2" dia.) "Small stuff". We often used 3/8" or 1/2" to secure small gear on deck prior to heavy WX. Would cut it off when needed to get that gear (easier, faster than untying wet manila). Our mooring lines were all High Modular Synthetics (Kevlar is a brand name not a material). Advantage of these was strength and nearly zero stretch-so if one "parted" less chance of injury. Ran lots of small craft too. KISS is important in all aspects of marine operations. I dont think small boat recreational people typically understand the danger of parting lines or pulling a cleat off a deck/gunwale under strain.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It can be some pretty scary stuff. I just watched a video of a line hitting a guy through a chainlink fence. I don’t think the average viewer realized it, but it cut the guy in half through the fence. Again, thank you for sharing your experience!
