I am in the process of updating my 1985 Hobie 16 and I wanna get new cleats and line for my jib system. What type of line do you guys use? I want to get a blue color but I want it to be strong because my favorite time to sail is hurricane season lol. I looked into FSE Robline Orion which is polyester and the Maffiloi. Just looking for opinions but if you wanna try and persuade me to a specific website or brand go right ahead!

I like Salsa for the main sheet, but I still have the original jib sheet line on my 16 (now almost 10 years old). It's a bit stiffer than Salsa, but it works just fine.

Hobie Cat's line supplier is Liros - here's their current dinghy line-up: http://www.liros.com/en/products/yachting/dinghy.html
