    Tension on forestay and shrouds

    Can anyone give me a good idea how to get the tension right on the forestsy and shrouds on 1996 Hunter 235? I've heard that a run of thumb is not being able to move them more than one inch when you push on it.

    O'Day 222, 1984 - Rigging/Tension settings help

    I just picked up a OD 222 and can't find any tension settings for my stays and/or riggings. There is a lot of info out there that says "hand tight" but I want to find information I can use with a Loos Gauge. Any help is much appreciated!

    Rigging tension Pearson 35

    I am searching for standing rig tension specs. I have 1/4 forstay, aft and shrouds and 7/32 sways. Loos guide places at 1300 on 1/4 and 1000 on 7/32. I did this but I am hearing the lines strummed by 10-14mph winds at berth. Thanks in advance !
