Rigging is OEM.  Have owned boat 22 years.  Have used waterproof grease on 
turnbuckle threads every year.  Wipe off excess after rig is tuned.  Has worked 
well.  We remove mast every winter so can inspect everything.  Last fall noted 
3 turnbuckles had seized the rod end.  PB blaster easily fixed 2.  3rd required 
some more time and gentle heat.  Held rod with vice grips and worked turnbuckle 
loose.  No marks on rod.  All is well

Hey Joel asked a good question. 

  

What's the best lubricant for turnbuckles?
