I am looking for the lengths of the running rigging for a 1995 or newer Hunter 26 which uses a ZSPAR. I have the lengths for a 1994 it uses a Isomast. I had to replace my mast and the replacement is a ZSPAR. The 1995 and on were made by ZSPAR. The 94 Isomast running rigging is as follows Forestay - Turnbuckle w/ Toggle 30'-7 5/8", Upper Shroud - Turnbuckle w/ Toggle 29'-11", Lower Shroud - Turnbuckle w/ Toggle 16'-3 3/4" and Mast Raising Bridle Wires - Pelican Hook 5'-11". Thanks for any help. I am hoping I will get the mast in 2 weeks. I never thought it could take so long. WIND SHADOW on the hard and not liking it with great weather these last few weeks.

Howdy neighbor!

Carl: I do not know if I would trust the measurements to have the rigging built. I think that this should be measured to YOUR specific boat. Most of the quality sailmakers will not even cut you a sail without the measurements from your specific boat. There are some places down in Sacto or over in the bay area that can make these up for you which may save you some money if you have to have even ONE redone! Good Luck! Tahoe is waiting for a Wind Shadow!

Try contacting Hunter directly

Provided your new mast height is the same as the old one, Hunter should be able to provide you with the lengths you need. In case you need other parts for your Z-Spar rig, I added a link below to the US Spars website. The site has diagrams and part numbers for a wide variety of rigs for production boats including Hunters. Good luck. Peter H23 "Raven"

All are 3/16" 1x19 SS Forestay: 30'-7 5/8" Stem ball / Turnbuckle with toggle Upper Shroud: 29'-11" T-ball / turnbuckle with toggle Lower Shroud: 16'-0" T-Ball / turnbuckle with toggle Mast rising bridle wires: 5'-11" T-ball / turnbuckle with toggle Ron Mehringer s/v Hydro-Therapy

Thanks everyone

I have talked to USSPARS and they still believe that the rigging should be finished by a boat yard. Even though I have the lengths for each from the manual and Hunter. All I know is I want the boat in the water soon. Thanks for all your replies. I don't know what I would do if I had to decide all this stuff on just my own knowledge.
