Salts,

New to the boat, and looking for some basic numbers on a loose guage for stays, shrouds, and diamonds.

Anybody have any suggestions? The rig height is 47'.... is that the tall rig?

Thank you!

I'm sure someone will come up with "the numbers" but one of the very best and simplest rig tuning guides is the one Catalina wrote for the simple masthead rigs used in a variety of their boats, all done without fancy gauges and stretch coefficients and tangents, cosines and calculations. It's in the Manual that came with the boat. If you don't have a manual, download it from the C30 Assoc. website. If you can't find it there, try our C34 manuals section, it's the same material from CY for C30s and C34s and C36s and 27s and 25s....: Mk I Owner's Manual: http://www.c34.org/wiki/index.php?title=Manuals

Also there's this bonus tuning guide: http://www.c34.org/wiki/index.php?title=Rig_Tuning
