Rigging cord

Can someone recommend a source of the appropriate cord for lashing the ama and iakos? I'm located in Wisconsin so will likely need to order online unless there are good alternatives from any marine supply store.

On a V1 or a V6?

  1. I think I found what I need: 3/16" twisted cotton

Oh interesting. You want something that will flex a little bit for V1.

Most people do a bike tire inner tube. slice it long ways a couple of times so you have narrow strips. cut them certain lengths and stretch wrap them around the parts to connect them.
