Very appreciate your recommendations Alan and Dennis. Can’t wait to take her sailing.
Ian, I’m in oyster point marina for now by the airport till I move her to clippers by you next month. Would you like to go sailing sometime? Mine is getting hull out on Monday for the survey and bottom paint but should be back in about 10 days.

I removed a Hood Seafoil (twin slot rod) from my boat in 1999 and replaced it with a Harken furler and wire forestay. No issues. Re-head the rest of the rod rigging and keep it rod. Rod rigging generally fails at the head. The rod is most likely still OK. The rod can be coiled to no LESS than 200 times rod diameter and shipped for re-heading. -- Dennis C.

Love the boat and want to take your opinions here. Boat has original standing riggings and currently going thru changing halyards and standing riggings. Few questions, 1- planning to change my forestay twinstay rod with wire system harken furler. Is this a good move? 2- back stay is a rod hydrolic system and planning to change the system with a wire system too, any recommendations on what to go with? 3- lastly and most important, all the standing riggings are rod and heard it’s very challengy to change it to wire. Should I keep it a rod system? Is it smart to go half wire for the front/back stay and half rod for the standing riggings? Appreciate your time here in advance and would love to meet local C&c sailors too, MAZEN AZIZ https://mazenaziz.wixsite.com/mazenaziz “To most people, the sky is the limit.
