Bought mine for ~$500.  There are ways to tune the rig without but I like
the consistency and scientific order to doing it with a tension gauge.  My
understanding is that you need an RT-10 or RT-11 for rod rigging.  The
important factor being that rod is naturally more rigid than wire thus the
scale is different.
After tuning, the boat no longer has a pronounced favoritism for a port
tack.
