My local rigger is taking no chances re-rigging my 95 C&C 36XL. He sent it all to Rigging Only(?) in Rhode Is and will reinstall with new which has been matched exactly. Some parts of older rigging are often not available and must be replaced with similar or manufactured ($$$) to match. I bit the bullet and paid an expert to reduce the chance of a personal gravity storm!! CharlieWater Phantom

On most boats I re-rig I don’t order parts until I have disassembled the rigging and know exactly what I need. If you are going to do it yourself I’d recommend that you use either Sta-Lok or Hayn Hi-Mod fittings.

The owner's manual (1980 C&C 25 mkII) simply says "T-ball" for the forestay and upper/lower shrouds. Looking around, it appears there are a number of variants out there. Assuming that T-ball and T-bar are the same in this case (please correct me if I'm wrong on this point), I'm thinking they would be of the "old style" since it is a 1980 model. Does anyone happen to know what sort of fittings we'll need for the upper ends? We'll be ordering (local riggers seem to be unavailable and the only estimate I got was $6,000), which leaves us on the hook for figuring out the details. We're planning on sending a GoPro up to take some pictures and look around at things later this week, but we really don't know what to look for (any identifying characteristics?). Step ladders make me nervous, so I'm happy to let the camera make the first ascent.
