Default Powerlite

The cable I mentioned before is the powerlite cable. I wonder if this cable could be curved around the mast and then lashed together the terminals then would connect to stainless wire which would follow the traditional rigging on this boat?

I basically need something as thin as wire rope to go under the sail track between the stand offs and of material which will not rust. I can then wrap it in leather so that it will not chafe the cheeks and mast.

The issue then is whether the radius will be compatible with the cable, if I can get the right connectors for the load to attach to stainless 1x19.

I really think this is my only option. I will have to do a lot of work to make sure the eyes are the proper diameter with lashings... and I will have to come up with a lot of chafe protection but I can do it. The eyes often stack or criss cross at places on the spars. The top of the mast has 7 eyes all stacked upon each other.

Ok, so does anyone know about Powerlite Rigging cable and its connectors?
