Polypropylene & High Tensile PolypropylenePolypropylene ropes float, which makes them ideal for safety uses, throwing lines, ropes on life rings and life buoys etc.
Cheap polypropylene rope can be difficult to handle as it can become stiff if left in the same position of a long period of time.
Floating ropes are very useful in some situations, however a rope on the surface is always a danger to the propeller, so particular care should be taken to avoid fouling the prop when using polypropylene.
