I am doing a refit on a 36C that has not been in the water for 10 years, so I have never seen my boat rigged and I have some questions and ideas I'm tossing around.
The staysail boom/control line has me a little confused and I'd appreciate some help getting it right. I've also seen a number of photos of sister ships with winches added to the port side of the boat in various configurations. Any ideas about what works or doesn't?
I'm adding turning blocks to a new deck collar and think I will lead the main halyard and reefing lines to starboard. Anyone done this?
There is a Lofrans vertical windlass with capstan in my attic waiting to be installed on the foredeck. I'm looking at the bow roller and its configuration and cleat placement. I don't want to re-invent the wheel if someone has a functional foredeck that they love.
I also want to add some cleats/chocks midship for spring lines, but can't quite decide where to put them.
Any photos of your deck hardware and rig would be appreciated.
