Beneteau 321 NSSC (Michigan)
I asked Beneteau the following question:
Previous owner of my B321 did not tension the stays correctly and the baby stay actually damaged the underside of the deck. Can you tell me the correct amount of tension req'd for all the stays on this boat.

This was Beneteau's reply:
The rigger that taught me to tune a rig lived by the philosophy that tuning a rig is an art, not a science. This is a process must be hands on. Please contact your local sail maker, rigging company or Beneteau dealer for help with this project.

I could of got that answer from anybody.
Does any B321 owner have ball park numbers for a 1996 B321 (especially the baby stay)?

Did you ever get an answer ?
If so can you post it here please.
My dealership jaust says "turn all the turn buckles a couple of turns"
I think I'd like something a bit more repeatable than that.
