dock line size & fenders
What would be the right diameter size dock line for a 35' Cig? 1/2" , 5/8" ??.........Also, what type of fender to use and where to buy?............Thanks

1/2" or 5/8" will be ok depending on where you tie up and for how long. Seems like everybody uses the 8" x 20" Big B fenders with fleece fender covers.

4 - 1/2" x 15' for the corners
4 - 1/2" x 25' for spring lines and wider slips
2 - 5/8" x 35' for hd spring lines
I also keep a few 3/8" x 15' for raft ups, lunch stops, etc. where there might be small cleats or no need to over secure the mooring.

Thanks for the feedback. The cleats on the 38' TG are so skinny/small, which is much different than the Intrepid I'm used to. I wanted to get some new lines ordered before I head down to use the boat again.
