Ron, I have a Catalina 270 in San Diego and recently had to replace the Dutchman control lines on my boat. I went to every major fishing supply store in San Diego and no one had monofilament line heavy enough to match what is on the Catalina 270 Dutchman system. If you call this guy (he is the inventor of the Dutchman system)
Martinus Van Breems, Inc 54 A. Beach Road, Norwalk, CT 06855 Tel. 203-838-0375 Fax 203-838-0377 You will have the correct line in a few days. The price is comparable to what you would pay in a fishing equipment store.
