I need to restitch most of my tramp. What type of thread should I use? I found some incredibly expensive stuff, but there has to be something more affordable.
Thanks
I have tried mono, but it goes from clear to UV white and brittle in a summer. My next attempt will be to use braided fishing line. Any material used to sew sails... is going to be tough. If you have had the pleasure of trying to push a needle through a sail... you might appreciate the professionals and their tools/materials. My G-Cat tramps are shelterite and very easy to sew. Not sure what a hobie's is made of.

Thanks. We ended up calling the local guy that makes boat covers, biminis, etc. He sold us a bunch of the stuff he uses, and I don't even know what it is exactly, but I'm guessing it will hold up for a long time given what he uses it for.
