A:
Dennis, the photo is just a representative shot of what the cords may look like. We don't get to pick colors for them; one time a size may be yellow, the next time red. You can always call us, 800.635.5202, and we can check what sizes and colors are in stock.Answered on 5/16/2013 by Clyde from NRS

Q:
Is there a recommended thickness for sea kayak deck lines?Asked on 9/5/2012 by Melodi from Oviedo, FL3 answers
VERIFIED BUYER
A:
Dear Melodi:
I used 4 mm and 5 mm prusik cord to replace some deck lines on my Valley Avocet. I also used some 3/16 " bungee cord for lateral lines. Perhaps you could order some short lengths from NRS to compare them to your existing lines. If you're near a marine supply store like West Marine, they'll have cords and bungees on spools for you to take a look at.

WendellAnswered on 9/5/2012 by AnonymousA:
At 1,034 lbs. tensile strength, the 4-mm is plenty strong enough. Also, many kayakers use bungee cord and we carry three diameters of that.Answered on 9/6/2012 by Clyde from NRSVERIFIED BUYER
A:
Personally, I think that 5mm prussik cord is plenty. Not too thick. Not too
thin.Answered on 9/9/2012 by Anonymous
