Extreme Max BoatTector solid braid MFP anchor line, Blue, 3/8" x 100' with stainless steel thimble — floatable, low-stretch

Extreme Max BoatTector 3/8" x 100' solid braid MFP anchor line is a floatable, low-stretch mooring rope with a stainless steel thimble for secure bow connections.

Built for recreational boating and general marine use, this 3/8" x 100' line from Extreme Max's BoatTector collection combines multifilament polypropylene (MFP) construction with a factory-installed stainless steel thimble. The rope is lighter than comparable nylon or polyester lines, floats when tossed overboard, and resists water absorption while offering a soft, easy-to-handle feel. Solid braid construction means it stays round, knots predictably, and is less prone to kinking or unraveling when cut.

How does this line perform when securing a boat?

The solid braid MFP provides consistent diameter and a smooth surface that makes feeding through cleats and chocks simple. Low stretch improves holding under typical mooring loads, and the stainless steel thimble protects the eye from chafe and deformation.

• Working Load Limit: 250 lbs; Breaking Strength: 1290 lbs
• Factory-spliced eye with stainless steel thimble for durable attachment
• Solid braid resists kinking and holds knots well

Is this rope suitable for everyday marine conditions?

Yes: MFP resists water uptake and dries quickly, which reduces weight gain and makes the line easier to handle after exposure to spray and splashes. It’s designed for non-critical consumer applications on decks, docks, and anchor setups.

• Floatable polyethylene-based MFP construction for easy retrieval
• Low water absorption keeps the rope light and flexible
• Limited lifetime warranty for BoatTector cordage products

How does the stainless steel thimble help?

The installed thimble protects the eye from abrasion and pinching against shackles, cleats, and bow rollers, extending the usable life of the loop. It also keeps the eye shape stable under load for more reliable connections.

• Corrosion-resistant stainless steel resists saltwater wear
• Maintains eye shape for consistent fit on hardware
• Reduces chafe at high-contact points

What makes solid braid different from twisted or diamond braid rope?

Solid braid is constructed so the strands form a continuous, round profile that resists unraveling when cut. It tends to be smoother, more supple, and less likely to form hockles or tight kinks, which makes it easier to coil and deploy.

• Round, smooth surface for easy handling and knot security
• Won’t unravel like twisted or diamond braid when trimmed
• Less prone to kinking or hockling during use

Who is this for: Boaters, anglers, and waterfront property owners looking for an economical, easy-to-handle anchor or mooring line will find this Extreme Max BoatTector MFP solid braid suitable for everyday marine tasks. It’s ideal for small to medium recreational boats needing a floatable, low-absorption line with a ready-made thimble eye. Note that this product is intended for non-critical consumer applications and should not be used for overhead lifting or situations that risk personal injury or property damage.
