I did change out the rig on my 35-3 last year, for new rod. The threads on the
turnbuckle screws were noticeably thinner in some areas and are ridiculously
expensive to replace, so for not too much more I did the shrouds and back stay
with new rid, tangs and turnbuckles. Determining the state
My surveyor laughed when I said I was going to change out my 1984 rod.
"Nobody here changes their rig."
Strangely enough, there's a lot of truth in that in this part of the rain

The biggest problem spot on the 35-3 is the mast step. If that is healthy,
everything else is gravy. (I jest). I took a small tapping hammer with me
when I went to look at our boat and did some basic sounding down in the
bilge.

Make no mistake this boat is going to be a project. There are some areas that
