Hurricane Irma claimed Ox, my beloved 33-1. In its place I now have a 1979 Cal-31. 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. Cheers, --Bob M
