Default Bias Boating for rope

http://www.biasboating.com.au/rope.html

I buy 12mm silver rope as my "shit rope" for pulling palms over etc. Going to Bunnings etc is a rip off and I used to buy it at Southport Trawler Supplies on the Gold Coast but that's too far away now.

Anyway, did the rounds today and dropped into the Bias Boating mob not far away.

well, they had a good assortment, some cheaper ropes I'm talking not for life support but perhaps light rigging and pull ropes etc.

I but the cheap Silver stuff coz it gets hammered and chainsawed a bit, works out OK for hand pulls and doubled OK for Kanga but not OK for a vehicle pull.

Anyway, if you buy 100m or more of there better ropes the price is pretty good, I think they're around Brisbane and Sydney ... keep them in mind.

Bunnings wants $2.80, for the same rope I got today at $0.83m coz it was a prepacked 50m roll! Even if not it would be only $1.20m

And what's Bunnings motto? Cheapest prices are just the beginning. lol
