O’Day 26 Lindon
I purchased a 1984 O’Day 26 in San Diego a few weeks ago. It was on the hard with the mast down. It’s in great shape but the backstay is missing and I can’t find any info on the length and for obvious reasons I can’t just measure the old one. Anyone have the length? I need to get one made ASAP.

I would reach out to D&R Marine, they should know what you need.

Congratulations by the way! I'm a 26 owner as well, it's a great boat.

I'd contact D&R Marine, Rudy will know the length. www,srmarine.com (508) 644-3001 (Calling is best way to reach Rudy!)
I have the dimensions for the 25, but not sure it is close enough, since although the 26 was an updated version of the 25, I'm not sure how similar the rigging is. Anyway, the 25 Backstay is: 5/32” x 32’8 ¼”
