Hello all,
My name is Zach and my boats name is soon to be StarRover, pending Poseidons approval. She is a Vivacity 21, not real clear on the year because my title says 82 but from what I've learned they weren't making these boats in 82 so I don't know. anyways. I am new to sailing in general and am not sure what is going on with my rig. I got the mast stepped and tensioned the rigging as follows forstay, then backstays, then side spreaders, then my half shrouds. sorry I don't know the proper terms. my problem is that my turn buckles are all the way tighter with no more room to adjust but my rig doesn't seem like it is tight enough. honestly doesn't seem to be very tight at all. so I do not know maybe I am wrong if someone is willing to have an open discussion on the matter I would greatly appreciate ANY advice that would be given. thank you so much in advance!!! may the tides be in your favor.
Sincerely,
Zach
