At least for this anchor we are talking about a 26' power cat, that may be on the hook for an hour or so at a time. Not just a lookout, but a couple.

Just do it
You have plenty of occasions to inspect the rode if you hoist anchor 5-10 times a day

There is a gap between HMPE & nylon : why not try polypropylene
or some CoEx PP/PE, in a moderate to hard lay (for elasticity)?
This would give you floating line, so little weight submerged, for hauling out;
and you would keep the thickness, for more comfortable handling.
