I am wanting to replace the 2 halyards on my 1978 C27 standard rig. Can someone tell me what is the proper length and diameter of rope. I also plan to run the main into the cockpit so if anyone else has done that how much length did you add?
Also I am replacing all the running rigging and am wondering what size rope people are running for the following: Main sheet Traveler lines Backstay Outhaul Reefing lines toping lift Fulring drum inhaul. I am hoping to be able to cover all of it with a spool of 1/4" will that work on everything but the main sheet and halards? Or would 3/16 do the job for the light stuff? Thinking 3/8 for the halyards and 7/16 for the main sheet. Thanks, Todd Birch Jacksonville, FL 1978 C27 #3591 "Sundown"
