I feel victim to the much cussed Scotty cable yesterday. I haven't had any problems until now,but the cable appears to have just snapped. It wasn't kinked,crushed,or rusty. Looked exactly like the cable on the new Scotty on the opposite side of the boat.

I've read about many guys switching to braid and Power Pro seems to be a popular replacement. Is there anything better than the PP?

I know Scotty has replacement braid,but it looks like its even thicker than their cable and you won't gain any advantage with blowback.
