Rig and Sails

To outfit the boat for offshore voyaging the following upgrades and services to the original setup were done in 2003:

All standing rig was replaced by SS 316 wire one size bigger than originally (i.e. 1/4" instead of 3/16" 1x19 SS wire). The stays have radial rolled swages on top and StaLok terminals w/ new turnbuckles on the bottom.
All chainplate bolts and bolts in the mast were replaced and tightened by CD's specs.
For positive floatation and to fix electrical wires the mast was filled with removable closed cell foam.
A new ProFurl NC32 roller furling and new genoa blocks were installed.
