N3500

The Hull has been refurbed, new cover made and new suits of sails purchased so now need to get N3500 re-rigged.
 
What are the popular choices of Rope and Diameters used for
 
a) Rope section of the Adjustable shrouds
b) Main Halyard
c) Jib Halyard (Crazy is simple at the moment with loop onto hook rack)
d) Spilt of Main/Bridle
 
Options are on looking and reading appear to be
 
Dyneema - Marlow Excel D12, Excel D12 Max 78 or Liros D-pro (all 12 Strand)
Vectran - Marlow Excel V12
 
I thought it better to ask before I buy - Thanks
