Hi all

I don't have much information on different types of ship's lines (ropes), other than a copy of a Master's thesis from TAMU from 2007:
" LA BELLE: RIGGING IN THE DAYS OF THE SPRITSAIL TOPMAST,A RECONSTRUCTION OF A SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY SHIP’S RIG
A Thesis by CATHARINE LEIGH INBODY CORDER"
pp 57-64 might be of some help to you. Interesting stuff for those trying to identify pieces of ship's rigging as well.

Best of luck!
