What size (length and diameter line) are you running on your Beneteau 423? Different ones for each sail? Any recommendations for using dyneema core? We just bought a 423 and getting her re-rigged but I am not where she is at the moment and I need to order the line.
Thank you

For the main halyard, dyneema will give benefits. If the genoa is roller furled, then dyneema won't matter as much. Since the line needs to be useable in clutches, winches, and by hand, 3/8"/10mm is likely the smallest diameter you would want. That size covered dyneema will be more than adequate for your boat.
