Re: SPREADER WIDTH.

 

Hi,
I suggest you take a look at a page in the Files section of this yahoo group called information.htm? There is a good amount of other info stored there as well.
It does not specify a width for the spreaders but I bet you are looking for the length as well as possibly the diameter of the spreader material which I won't know until I pull my mast again.? Perhaps someone else knows the specific dimensions of the spreaders.? Somewhere on information.htm it does specify the dimensions of the mast and you may want to measure and compare to your current mast (it might be the original).
As for standing rigging wire sizes, that info is there also but I will paste it here:
All wire is 7 x 19 stainless
------------------------------------------------------------------
?Standing Rigging
?
Lower Shrouds-------- 7/32"
Upper Shrouds-------- 3/16"
Forestay?------------? ?3/16"
Backstay??------------ 3/16"
Lifelines???-------------??9/32" including vinyl 3/16" wire
Genoa Tracks?--------- 1"
Mainsheet traveler??----?7/8??? many have up graded to 1"
Spreaders?-------------?7? degrees above Horizontal
?--------------------------------------------------------------------
Good luck with your rebuild.? These are great old boats if put together well.
