    AmSteel-Blue on sale at West Marine

    If you have a West Marine near by you can get 7/64 Amsteel for 23¢ a foot. They do free ship to store. This rope is a web order only. They usually do not carry it in store. Visit website and search for dyneema. Look for

    Thanks for the heads up!

    FWIW - my local West Marine usually has the Amsteel Blue in various sizes/colors including the 7/64.

    Another FWIW....0.23 gets the price down to about what many others sell it for. Some of our cottage vendors are a bit lower.
