I've told this story before, Joe, but here goes.
I had a toggle on one of the D2 shrouds on my 38 break. My rigger said that
Navtech had a recall in the early 2000s on the toggles, and mine was
probably not replaced at that time.
Since I had a bit of a trust issue on rod rigging that was

I am finding out absolutely no one is going to sign off 40 year old rod as
passing inspection ☹ They also said some of the fittings used in that era are
not even possible to inspect and use them again anyway.

No way it was antimony. That is an alloying metal. They use it in keels to
give it a little more strength than pure Lead. Most likely it was
stainless, and could have chewed up the threads in the turnbuckle barrel.
Stainless on stainless should be lubed with Tefgel, stainless with bronze

Hi Len- I would like to hear that story. I did not think a backstay failure
would lead to dismasting. Dave

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

A sistership of my 42 Custom had a rigging failure. I can ask the owner what
caused it if people have an interest.

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
