Try marine parts direct in swords they have a good choice of rope.
Or there is another place at Malahide marina.:)

I've used "marine suppliers" a good few times now. I've found them very helpful and reasonably priced seeing as they mainly sell direct to commercial fishermen.
Ask one of the lads nicely and they'll even splice loops and such into your rope.
You can find them on the west pier in howth.
