  1. Paul Le Wol's post in Ropes of Scale Cotton Rope was marked as the answer   
    Hi Ross, I haven’t used their cotton for this application so here are three Ropes of Scale .25mm beige cotton clove hitches tied to a length of..9mm dark brown polyester. The beige on brown was for clarity. The one on the left is dry and holds well . The center one has been treated with diluted pva and the right one has been treated with Vallejo Matt Polyurethane Varnish

    Hi Jacques, I have been using Model Shipways rigging plans for the Glad Tiding to help rig my sharpie because they are rigged similarly although the pinky is a bit larger vessel.  Both are 40 some odd feet long and 1/24 scale. The Pinky also has wire standing rigging which scales to 3/8”. So 1/4” (.009”) wire for your 1/32 scale Lancha seems reasonable. Here’s a few pictures of the plans.

    Hi Capella, I think at Modelexpo you get 12 pieces @ 500 mm equaling 6 of the 1000 mm strips from Modelers Central. So about the same price if I’m not mistaken in my math. Paul
