What is a good performance/cruising rig tension for headstay, backstay, and shrouds? I want to set them and leave them. I daysail/cruise, but like am into good performance. Thanks. MJ

Shroud Tension

The book says 55lbs for the upper or cap shrouds; everything else is less. Aft lowers have the least but should never be loose.
