Stus-List 37+ rod rigging size
Anybody know the rod size for the standing rigging of a 37+ with the tall rig? I tried to measure it but evidently my vernier caliper usage skills are poor. I'm looking to buy/borrow a Loos RT-10 but need the rod size to make sure i get the correct one. Yes, on the side is a rod gauge but i don't want to get committed to a $500 tool just to find out its the wrong one and won't fit my rod. My measurements for the 2 different rod sizes are 5.1mm and 7.25mm or 0.203 inches and 0.279. None of the measurements are appropriate which makes it impossible to tell if the rod is standard or metric. Any sources for borrowing a tension gauge would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Re: Stus-List 37+ rod rigging size
Ken Heaton comes through again! He says, look at the owners manual. and there it is #6 and #12 rod which equals 0.198 and 0.281. Which means I would be in the market for the smallest standard Loos RT-10 rod tension gauge. Anybody know where to get one cheap or have one they are looking to part with?

Hi Josh, Newport Nautical Supply has one on consignment for about $250 last time I was there (a couple of weeks ago). They may ship, not sure.
