My Synthetic Textiles dacron rope is losing its cover (the black sheath) from rubbing in the trees. While the first run lasted a couple of years, this time I got only 6 months use. Admittedy, the number of days of rain, high winds and otherwise miserable weather has been considerably worse this year than in the past.

The trees are tall (70-100 ft), and it's impossible to get near where the ropes cross the branches.

Can anyne on TT recommend a rope with a strong outer sheath?

Thanks in advance,

Eric W3DQ
