Hey Joel asked a good question.
What's the best lubricant for turnbuckles?

Wire in a small computer muffin fan to circulate air. Cold and hot spots

I had good luck with a silicone seal that I found I think it was at Lowe's.
It was kind of oval shaped I think in Brown. It has a peel off strip that
exposes an adhesive. The nice thing about it is that it never takes a set.
It is always flexible & tight

Hi All,
I enjoyed meeting a few you last night on the virtual rendezvous, thanks for
a nice chat!
One question for the group tonight. My refrigerator ices up quickly in one
corner every season, so I suspect I need to find a way to get a better seal.
Has anyone found a source for a good
I would be interested to know if salt vs fresh water changes the life span of stainless rigging and I suspect it does. My rig looks and functions like new but it has always been in fresh water. Additionally, boats are out of the water 6 months a year in the north.I had a 1981 C 36KCB that was
Defective Rigger for sure.

I am having the rod rigging on my 1991 34+ inspected and replaced as needed
by “The Rigging Company” in Annapolis. They replaced the lifelines several
years ago and did a good job for a fair price. The mast is down and the
rigging is in their shop now — just got an updated invoice which increased
Joe,
It may take some searching to find someone who will work on older rod
rigging but they do exist. Here in the Boston area, North East Rigging out
of Concord MA has this expertise. Call around and hopefully you can find
someone in your area who can do the work. Does it save money in the end vs
FWIW, our 1976 38-ii was partially rerigged in 2013. The previous owner
swapped all of the shrouds for Dyneema and new turnbuckles. The forestay
was replaced with wire before the PO bought it. Probably around the time
the harken furler was installed (my guess is 2003-2006). The backstay is
still
A sistership of my 42 Custom had a rigging failure. I can ask the owner what
caused it if people have an interest.

When I refit my 37/40 the riggers wouldn’t touch it; too old. I replaced all
the standing rigging and fittings. It was just shy of $20k Canadian.

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
It is also an insurance issue. Many times a rigging inspection is required.

In my opinion, this is just a money making scheme. Has anyone ever heard of a
rig failure of rod rigging? My boatyard hasn’t and they were C dealers a

I had mine inspected and some reheaded about five years ago on my 1981 40. 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
Ran into a snag:
The rigging shop I called told me rod rigging from 1981 was NOT going to
pass their survey just from age and some the fittings used back then could
not be inspected, taking them apart is a one-way trip. Does anyone have an
idea on the longevity of rod and the cost to replace it
