🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between synthetic fibers vs natural fibers and elasticity • Typical stretch characteristics of common mooring line materials (nylon, Dacron/polyester, polypropylene, manila) • Why elastic elongation can be useful for absorbing shock loads

💭 Think About

• Which of these materials is known for high stretch under load and good shock absorption in mooring and anchor lines? • Which materials are more commonly chosen when you want low stretch and more precise control (for example, in sailboat running rigging)? • Among natural fiber and synthetic fiber lines, which group generally has greater elasticity and better performance when subject to sudden loads?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on what "elastic elongation" means: the ability to stretch under load and spring back without damage • Recall which line material is usually recommended in textbooks for anchor lines and moorings specifically because of its stretch • Separate natural fiber (manila) from synthetic fibers (nylon, Dacron/polyester, polypropylene) and then decide which synthetic is considered the most stretchy
