Rigging

No one stocks head stays, back stays etc. because there is no such thing as "Stock". The rigging on your boat was most likely made by a vendor to Hunter. Find a good rigging shop, bring them the pieces you want to replace, explain what you want and they'll do it. I made up replacements for all of the rigging on my '83 33 with materials from JSI and Rigging Only. 1 x 19 stainless wire and sta-lok end fittings. Rigging only, in Fair Haven MA has been very helpful, and their pricing isn't terrible.

Keep the original size

Sam is right - find a good local rigger, or get a good book on the subject, and do it yourself. The boat was designed for the original rigging size, and the design is quite conservative. Going up a size will increase the weight aloft, and stiffen the rig, neither of which is desirable. David Lady Lillie
