Claim filed, a somewhat "run in circles" affair, but satisfaction rewards those with patience. We've decided to rig one of the boats as it came, well mostly, to establish a baseline of performance. All standing rigging will be replaced with stainless wire, used for control line aircraft. It's light and strong, much better suited to the task at hand. For now the standard running rigging (sheets) will be OEM. I'll also use some bowsies I have on hand. My hull will be a two tone affair, blue metallic and white, while the wife's boat will retain the fancy factory colors. She has reserved the right to change her mind. (She is, after all, a woman) Meanwhile, I'm trying to source a pair of carbon fiber rods for the masts and some carbon/foam/carbon batten stock to use for jib and main booms. I'm also looking for ring bowsies, to use on the booms for sail shape and sheeting adjustments. I'm going to eliminate one of the spreaders and stays, and relocate the remaining spreader. Speaking of which, the newer boats now have an insert on the outer end (of the spreaders) to prevent chaffing the stays.
