SHEATHED CABLES
It is recommended that all cables be sheathed!
with leather or plastic in areas where there is!
friction. Also keep a few extra lengths of cable in!
reserve.!
HALYARDS
We highly recommend pre-stretched type of!
halyards rather than wire cables. They are much!
smoother for the winches and your hands. All cables!
can be bought pre-spliced and cut to length with the!
proper fittings attached to them.!
Usually the price includes your choice of!
colour and you can be assured of the quality of the!
workmanship. The lengths and colours are given in the!
material list on the deck plan.!
k) TURNBUCKLES!
The turnbuckles should not be swaged on the!
stays and shrouds, unless you buy from a company that!
has the exact length you require on hand. You cannot!
rely on the plan for these lengths because of the!
different types of mast installations available on the!
market. "Iso-Mat" (#50) already has the proper lengths!
as verified by us and can supply the rigging pre-!
swaged as both ends.!
LENGTHS
Another way is to swage the top end only and!
after putting the mast in its step keeping it as!
perpendicular as possible unscrew the turnbuckles to a!
maximum.!
