Does anybody know how long the Halyards and Sheets were when a 1978 Hunter 25 came from the factory?

If you go to the SBO store you can purchase the correct size/length lines there. They have excellent prices too.

I have a 1974 Hunter 25 and replace my main & jib with 70 ft 5/16 but the controls run to the helm. The jib sheets I replace with 1.5 x the length of the boat. So in my case two 37 ft lengths, but I used 3/8 instead of 5/16.
My halyards are like Don's, going aft on the coachroof to the hatch, and also 3/8". I bought 77-78 feet for each main halyard (I have double sheaves) and have not cut them shorter.
For headsail sheets, make them at least twice the J measurement (foredeck) plus the distance to the winches plus enough for tailing. On the H25 this is about 40 ft.
