Can anyone give some advice on the shroud tension for this O'day 19? The mast looks centered port/star; the upper shrouds are quite taut. I'm worried about damaging the hull.

schrouds on o'day 22

don't know if this applies to a 19, but I just rigged my o'day 22 and the instructions said the outside schrouds should be "finger tight" and the lower schrouds should be "less than finger tight". I noticed when sailing they end up feeling pretty close to the same tension. The instructions also say "warning - overtightening the schrouds can lead to hull dammage".
