I've used bungee cord for some time. I put in a loose length of "Spectra"
or "Deema" in the link that is my safety net if the bungee breaks. You can
double up the lengths/sizes and get whatever tension you want. I've found
the good sailing black bungee works pretty well. Be sure and sear the ends
so they don't start unraveling. I wrap my ends with sailing tape as well.
Works for me here on the ocean in this Florida sun and wind.
