Ivan,
CD is local here in Sacramento but the last time I checked they purchased their running rigging for resale from SECO South in Florida. When Lowell first heard about SECO South's pricing he commented he couldn't get the parts wholesale at that price so that couldn't be the price. After he checked it out they started buying from them.

I already bought the sheaves and bought some sta-setx that I have already spliced with eye on one end. That part is fine, it's the forestay I'm looking for and I couldn't find that on CD. I know that my subject was running rigging, my ERROR! Do you know if CD sells standing rigging? -Ivan --- On Fri, 11/7/08, Philip J Agur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Philip J Agur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: catalina27-talk: Running Rigging To: [email protected] Date: Friday, November 7, 2008, 6:12 AM Ivan, Catalina Direct is a good source for running rigging. You?re going to need to change the pulley arrangement in the mast head truck from wire to rope. Catalina Direct normally has these parts. The process is simple with the mast down. Just make sure the old halyards stay in place until you?re ready to use them to pull the new ones through the mast. When it comes to replacing standing rigging nobody beats SECO South in Florida. When you do the standing rigging remember those lifeline cables should be included.

When I took a trip up the mast to see what would be involved in changing the sheaves I noticed that my forestay had some broken wires in that as well. So the mast is coming down, with a crane, instead of waiting for it to come down on it's own! Does anyone have a good source for running rigging? I have a roller furler and don't really know much about changing the forestay with one of these. It looks like it just runs through the foil, but without being able to take it off I haven't really tired to figure it out yet. So if anyone can offer some help with that I would certainly appreciate it! -Ivan
