We are in the process of replacing(1-3 cables at a time)the standing rigging on our 1982 Ericson 38. We plan on tuning the rigging ourselves. Does anyone have the specifications for the tension we whould set the rigging to? Thanks in advance.

A good source

You will probably find a number of responses to both your questions on EricsonYachts.org - lots of owners check the forums frequently there.

Get them even.

Check that the mast is straight and balanced side to side. Then fore and aft tightening until snug. Don't over tighten as you might warp the deck.
