Rear Stay needs parts - looking for a supplier

[Donnie222]

My rear stay is way too loose. I have adjusted the turnbuckle to the full extent possible and I still need to reduce the length of my rear stay by about 3 inches. There is a short 16 inch assembly that is part of the rear stay system. It consists of a barrel turnbuckle on one end and a jaw on the other. There is ¼ steel cable in between. Does anyone know where I can go to have an assembly made with those same fittings at a length of 13 inches?

Thanks Much!!

Go look through the rig rite catalogue... look for "backstay" items

Check your rigging the stock tail piece is 16 inches on the 222 according to DR marine supplier for Oday website. Is the backstay that stretched out?

You should be able to get it shortened by anyone who does rigging.

Is the mast raked back? Maybe the forestay too loose?
