The only reason that the upper part of the mast stayed above the deck was the wire main and jib halyards. This is an area with a pretty high stress riser. I cant imagine how much more difficult it would have been to deal with if the mast had sunk. I'm sure we would have had to cut the shrouds and sails and let them sink. Anyone need a 2010 North Main Sail or an older UK 150 Jib? You cover shipping and they are yours.

The rigging is responsible for your primary mode of propulsion, and the forces are signficant. At least down here in Florida (Tampa area), riggers are pretty inexpensive, and the investment is well worth it for peace of mind.

Of all of the things we spend our money on, the rig is one where spending the money on a rigger makes sense. It is no fun to be bobbing a mile off shore trying to collect rigging and sails in three foot waves, afraid to engage the motor for fear of tangling in lines or sails. Find a rigger and have him give you advice.

After some research it looks like I should use double jaw toggles to connect the eyes of the new shrouds to the eyes in the existing shroud plates. http://hayn.com/marine/rigging/tj.html#djt On Fri, Nov 17, 2017 at 6:41 PM, Josh Muckley via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: Yeah I kinda misinterpreted the description. The swadged end fittings should be properly attached to a tang which could then be through bolted to the mast.

The tangs line up the direction of pull, a bolt would be getting pulled on at an angle trying to yank the head/nut off from one side.

Further, a plain bolt through the mast, when tightened, could cause the walls of the mast to bend or collapse. There should be a compression tube inside the mast through which the bolt goes to prevent that. On my mast the compression tube and bolt are directly in line with the spreaders, and the tang plate for the lowers is part of the spreader bracket. Attaching the lowers to just a plain bolt through the mast doesn't seem advisable.

I am hoping for some sympathy-advice regarding the standing rigging on my new boat. Below is the as yet unanswered question I posted on the Cal user group site: --- Greetings, My new-to-me 31 came with an oversized, uninstalled, brand new set of shrouds. The mast ends have beefy eye fittings. The existing lowers terminate with jaws that connect to rectangular plates (port and stbd) that are bolted together through the mast. I am wondering if the intent was to do away with the plates and run the bolt directly through the four eyes (two eyes on each side, of course). :-) Any thoughts or ideas are most welcomed.
