Cam The Rigger

Considering how many sets of rigging we see at Marine, we don’t see many of these. Back stay adjuster bridle stud. If you see a crack like this on your standing rigging, go buy a lottery ticket. You’re lucky it didn’t fail.

Springtime, so the lines are going out in complete sets.

Customer complained that the line wouldn’t hold in the cleat. Two speed main sheet on a 37’ boat. Sheet was 5/8” diameter. After years of running line that is too big for their gear the cleat was very worn. We replaced the cleat and right sized the line. I expect that it will play out much easier. And the cleat will be able to hold.

A sad Wayfarer halyard came in. New, all rope replacement is ready to go. Along with a replacement acetal mast head sheave.

The power of tape! One end spliced. One end stitched and taped. I would never imagine that it would hold. Running backs on a 25’ keel boat. New owner, rightly, wants them replaced. Is this a or a testament to electrical tape?
I had to see what was under the tape.

New Neon colored whipping twine.

Fogh Marine is at the Toronto International Boat Show. Booth G535. Come and see us and dream about sailing.

Thanks to and one of our local sailors was able to get a new halyard for his Benteau 10R.

A pair of Marlow D2 10mm halyards. Things are getting busier in the rigging shop.
