Has anyone got information on the correct tension for the standing rigging on a 1997 CP-23D?
I know I've seen this information before but I just can't seem to locate it.

Thanks,

Brian,
There is a good "how-to" in the "Articles" section of this website.  Should tell you all you need to know.

Fair winds and smooth sailing,
John

Hi Brian
First thing to do is buy a Loos tension gage, then stand the mast up straight and follow the guidelines That come with the gage. It takes a while but the results and peace of mind are worth it.

Good sailing Ron B, tooboat
