My 30-2 is now 25 years old [wish I was, too!!], and has rod rigging, except
for the split backstay and probably the forestay [has a Harken furler on it].
The 30-2 is a double spreader rig.
About 2 years ago, I paid for a rigging inspection [mast stayed UP]. All was
reported as OK.
I have not raced the boat, nor have I sailed her "hard" over the past 12
seasons [i.e., reef early, keep her "on her feet" in higher winds].
However, I have no idea how the POs used the boat, but I suspect some racing
was done.
That said, I am thinking the prudent move is to have the rod rigging terminals
"re-headed", both top and bottom terminals [I hope my use of terminology is
accurate, and if not, at least understood].
I would appreciate any and all feedback from this group on what maintenance I
should consider.
--Does this make sense to have this done when I've had no issues?
--Can it be done without removing the mast?
-- If I do it, should I replace the forestay?
--What should I expect to pay roughly?
--Can you recommend a rigger [I'm on lower Chesapeake Bay, in Deltaville, Va.]?
Thanks,
Pete W.
