The worries about spectra lifelines are chafe and UV-degradation. Spectra needs to have a UV protective covering IIRC, and needs chafe protection, which the stainless lifelines don't worry as much about... As for Category 1, you need to be a bit more specific... are you talking ORC Category 1 for racing??

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
