sailrite.com has it by the foot in black or white, various sizes. They'll ship small items by mail. IslandJim

That would have been my next question - that I forgot - so 1/4" is the standard?

I bought a 50-foot length of 7 mm black bungee at BassPro. It's in-between 3/16" and 1/4", and is about the same as my Perception Pescador was rigged with. I didn't recommend it, because I don't think it's weathering very well. IslandJim

Yup. Such a minor detail, and 1/4" is not correct, although WS employees said it was. IT DOES NOT THREAD through the pre mounted eye-cleats, so we are talking something other than, and less than .25". The bungee thins and the plot thickens ...
