XLS Extra offers the smooth flexibility of a 24-Strand braided polyester cover with a braided core made from a blend of MFP and Dyneema® fiber. Cover is navy blue with your choice of red, green, blue or beige tracers or white with color tracers.

We use XLS Extra for cruising boats that need a higher performance line without the expense of vectran or dyneema fibers. We do not strip the cover off XLS extra line as the core fibers have a tendency to snag.
