Does anyone know of a website where mast/boom/rigging hardware is identified and defined? My sailing/sailboat vocabulary is pretty limited, and I would like to improve it.

no, but...

Shaefer, Garhauer, and Sailnet all have printed catalogs that you could look at the pictures and ID them.

Spar Nomenclature

You mean you don't know your toggle from your gate? Try the spars sites, www.rigrite.com, www.usspars.com.

Rigging Only

I like to peruse www.riggingonly.com because its pages don't take long to download on my computer, which seems almost as old as my boat. Doesn't give much explanation, though. Mac
