Thanks for all the replies. I was able to fairly easily turn the starboars SS rod that is inside the boat. The head rotated inside the aluminum block without much resistance. 1 1/2 turns did the trick and got it as tight as the port side rod. I backed off the nuts on the brass bolts that pass

This is really something to think about when boat shopping. For the C 40 that I looked at and passed on because of hard grounding damage, the local riggers basically would not inspect the rig at all. They all told me more or less “it’s old, it needs replacing, we’ll probably damage fittings we

Just replaced 30 year old wire on my Hylas. Everything still looked great until we removed the furler drum. There was a LOT of corrosion under the furler. I've been told that for salt water boats the rod needs to be inspected and reheaded every 10 years and wire should be replaced at ten years

Sort of. I sailed my own boat for 30 years before I replaced the rod rigging. I still have the original backstay which I re-headed. The cost of doing an inspection on rod is prohibitively expensive. In my opinion it is more cost effective to replace it rather than pay to have it

I had mine inspected in 2010 or so. Other than some re-headed work everything checked out. The mast and rigging were down for 10 years (long story) but all went back up and are solid since 2018. Neil 1982 C 32 (For Sale) Rock Hall, MD 484-354-8800 Neil Andersen Rock Hall, MD 21661

Thank you to all who responded. Sounds like butyl is the unanimous recommendation for this application. I have some "bed-it" laying around somewhere, but as I recall it is thin and not very wide, and only comes in one size. I probably need something thicker and wider for this application.

When I got my new 25-year old boat, I had the rig pulled and disassembled it. I had a good look at all the rod and it looked fine. Nevertheless, it all went to Rig Pro--arguably the best in the world at rigging--for a thorough inspection and assessment and, knowing that I'm on a budget that

As a rigger I would go with Charlie Nelson’s recommendation. To do a thought inspection of rod rigging it needs to be completely disassembles and the cold head looked at closely and possible NDT’d to ensure there are no cracks. At almost 20 years old you most likely need to replace it.

I highly recommend Osprey! They've done work on my last two boats. Not cheap, but top quality work! Can't help on the rod. When I needed help with my Edson steering, Edson recommended M Yachts, but I've never used their rigging services. Joel On Sun, Apr 17, 2022 at 4:37 PM cenelson--- via
