winch rope

I am installing my warm powerplant and am trying to figure out if I should run the standard cable or switch out to a syn cable and if you rec syn cable how will it hold up to the elements like sand,snow, and sun

Synthetic line is susceptible to damage from uv radiation, so if you go that route its worthwhile investing in a winch cover to keep the line out of the sun.

That's what I heard don't plan on using winch every weekend I got a cover but wondering if syn will need to be replaced every few years from the elements
