I am about to step the mast on a 79 C-25. The prior owner had suspect ideas of how to tension the standing rigging. I hope to do some racing, and would like a more accurate tension of the rigging. Does anyone have these tensions available?

I don't know what's stirs the hornets nest more, rig tuning or teak refinishing? Anyway, check out this discussion that came up a few months ago. It is somewhat lengthy, but there is a lot of good stuff in there.

Also, in the Tech Tips section you will find a mast tuning procedure by Bill Holcomb that is very informative. I would have put a link here, but there appears to be a problem accessing that section today.
