For the Marion Bermuda race 2009, 2011 and 2015 my original rigging on my 1981 40-2 (I think its original) had to be surveyed for the race rider. Passed each time. But I doubt they would let go again. Locally. I have absolute confidence in the rig. Out there the loads can be incredible and would plan on finally replacing it, or at least totally deconstructing and x-raying it with a rigging blessing. Mostly the issues are in heads.

Many times a rigging inspection is required.

We had to replace the D3/V2 because when it was reheaded the fitting where it went around the spreader would have been in a different place. I think we replaced some turnbuckles, too. Just did something similar with my 1995 Baltic two years ago. I am pretty sure you will not have to replace all the rod. The area to really look at is the spreader tips and the fittings there.

Does anyone have an idea on the longevity of rod and the cost to replace it all? It doesn’t have to be rod again, does it? Dynaform wire or Dyneema maybe?
