I just purchased an O'Day 30. The previous owner is unavailable to assist with any knowledge transfer (estate sale). A good amount of the runnign rigging is missing from the boat. Does anyone have a rigging diagram to assist me to understand how the boat was intended to be rigged? I think I have it figured out but just want to be sure. Thanks in advance.

There is a complete O'Day 30 manual in the downloads section of the resources tab (above). It includes running rigging specs. That might help.

Thanks for the replies.

Could I also get your input on how you open and close the seacock for your engine's raw water intake? It is so hard to reach it is not practical. I have thought about putting an access hatch in the cockpit sole but hate to do that given how small the cockpit is to begin with. I also hate to leave any seacocks open when away from the boat.

Replaced mine a while back. it's easy to close now that helps, but it's not easy to get to.
under the sink is really hard to access also.

Do you have access through the quarter berth on the starboard side? That's how I get to mine on the 31. Otherwise it is hanging down into the port side lazerette. That would be okay if my arms were six inches longer.
