Justin, I think your over reacting, I am not being obtuse, I rarely am as I understand the definition.I get the Saftey Pro I mentioned in short lengths, up to 75' for around 30 bucks. I started off using them as a short rigging line for natural crotches then they where retired to using to tie down the trailer and pull it off. I had 3 of them but 2 of them have been used up. This is my last one. I would say that I more than recieved my money from these ropes. The super braid I retired from rigging because it was nicked and lost more than 25% of the cover strands. I also never did like how this rope held a bowline, so instead of throwing the rope away I have been using it to drag off the trailer and other non critical tasks. Once again using ropes that I have retired from regular duty. My climbing line is due to be replaced relatively soon, so I am willing to bet that it will see light rigging duty then probably pulling off the trailer. I perfer not to buy a rope for the sole purpose of pulling off the trailer, unless I recieve a really good deal on it.3/4" 3 strand Will be somewhat harder to tie a bowline due to the ropes stiffness and sheer size. Also with a MBS of up to 13k pounds the cycles to failure will still be somewhat lower than "unbreakable". Depending on the lay the rope may loose a great deal of strength from being tied in a bowline. 3 strand ropes are normally marked with their poor knot control. So like I said 3 strand is too weak and impractical for my purposes when I have retired ropes from work that have already earned their money back.
