Crafted with a load-bearing core made of high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE) fibers and a robust solution-dyed polyester braided cover, Calibre offers exceptional tensile strength while maintaining lightweight flexibility. And, with its elegant design, it enhances the visual appeal of any yacht, making it the perfect blend of performance and style. Whether used for docking or towing, Calibre is built to withstand extreme loads and harsh marine environments, providing yacht owners with peace of mind during every voyage.

 

Calibre’s construction ensures superior abrasion resistance, minimal stretch, and resistance to UV degradation, resulting in a long-lasting product that maintains its integrity over time. Available in a variety of diameters, lengths, and colors, Calibre can be easily customized to meet the specific needs of any superyacht, allowing for a personalized touch of luxury.
  

“We’ve designed Calibre to meet the highest standards of performance on the water,” said Gavin McWilliams, Product Manager, Samson. “This rope offers yacht owners and crews an essential tool that enhances both operational efficiency and the overall superyacht experience.”
