I bought a 1979 O'Day 23 and had to replace all the running rigging, some of which was missing so I have no reference. Can anyone please share pics or diagrams of how to run the lines for the rudder up/down haul? Would also like to see how you have your boom and mast rigged. Many Thanks.

If your 23 has an "up/down line" for the rudder, it is aftermarket, none of the O'DAY 23 models had a factory-supplied kick-up rudder.

there isn't a lot to the rigging of the Oday 23. There is an "owner's manual" that is available on this website. It's under the "resources" tab. However, the document that is there is incomplete. The manual, such as it is, is a double-sided sheet of paper. For your purposes, it has detailed drawings of the rigging, both standing and running. Unfortunately, the manual on this site has only half of one side of the document, and it's the side without the drawings. I've copied the other side of the document for you here. Enjoy
