Re: standing rigging dims


 

WD,
On the 'Files' section of the group page there is a file called information.htm which has a lot of dimensional info on the T27.? With some basic trigonometry you can figure out the lengths for all shrouds and stays.? I think that the relevant numbers you need are these:

Sloop Yawl
I 34.65' 33.50'
J 9.83' 9.83'
P 30.50' 29.50'
E 13.50' 13.00'
PY ? 13.00'
EY
5.67'

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

Subject: [T27Owners] standing rigging

Does anyone know the lengths of the upper shrouds, forestay and 
aftstay? I want to replace the standing rigging on "Gusto", a 1967 T-
27, hull # 284. She is a fine sailing vessel (I have owned her twice) 
but find I am not sailing her as she deserves due to concerns about the 
rigging being older.
