Cat30 Halyards

[escapade12]

Can someone tell me the length of the main halyard for a Cat 30 1990 std rig?

I just purchased new halyards for my 1989 C-30 standard. From what I have read and been advised, I believe the length is 100 feet, if extended to the cockpit. To be safe, I purchased 110 feet. Will replace the old with new next weekend -- we'll see if I got the correct length, or not.

I just purchased and installed two halyards on my 1990 Catalina 30 Tall Rig Bow Sprit. I wanted a little extra so my halyards are 116 feet. They are plenty long and work great!

Oh....I have a bit extra line at the end but it is nice if you decide to haul a dingy on deck or anything of the sort. The other nice thing is that I had my halyards whipped on both ends and I bowline in the shackle. I do this because I like being able to reverse my halyards every few years to even out the wear and their life.
