A sistership of my 42 Custom had a rigging failure.  I can ask the owner what 
caused it if people have an interest.

In my opinion, this is just a money making scheme.  Has anyone ever heard of a 
rig failure of rod rigging?  My boatyard hasn’t and they were C&C dealers a 
long time ago.

I had mine inspected and some reheaded about five years ago on my 1981 40. We 
had to replace the D3/V2 because when it was reheaded the fitting where it went 
around the spreader would have been in a different place. I think we replaced 
some turnbuckles, too. Just did something similar with my 1995 Baltic two years 
ago. I am pretty sure you will not have to replace all the rod. The area to 
really look at is the spreader tips and the fittings there.

Ran into a snag:

The rigging shop I called told me rod rigging from 1981 was NOT going to pass 
their survey just from age and some the fittings used back then could not be 
inspected, taking them apart is a one-way trip. Does anyone have an idea on the 
longevity of rod and the cost to replace it all?

It doesn’t have to be rod again, does it? Dynaform wire or Dyneema maybe?
