I would think that at 26 years of a gentle life, you are probably fine. When you say ‘inspected in place’, it sounds like you mean, not removing the shrouds. While inspecting the rig is certainly a good idea, as far as finding out obvious problems, like fittings and spreaders, etc, you aren’t

I had the rod rigging replaced on my 35 Mark 3 which I’ve since sold and replaced with a Quest 33. I was racing the boat, didn’t want to take a change on losing the rig which was at the time was 30 years old. The cost to replace it was $8K. Dave Jacobs Quest 33, Oops! Bristol, RI > On Mar

I replaced my mast, rigging and furler in 2020. Instead of using rod, I had new wire rigging installed, saving several thousands of dollars. I'm phasing out of racing, so it was a no brainer. When I finally decide to sell the boat, it won't make a bit of difference in the selling price. Alan

I had the rig out of my 40 a year before I sold her and reheaded most of the shrouds. It was fairly easy to take apart and and reassemble and the riggers gave me good instructions so I wouldn’t screw it up. I did the same with my Baltic 47 before I launched her for the first time. When you take

Charlie: I echo what Chuck Gilchrest said.  My 1984 C 32 is a single spreader, fully rod rigged.  A few years back, for peace of mind, I had a North Sails rigger inspect it and he said it all looked fine. If you read the Navtec website, and if I recall correctly, it recommends replacement

Charlie, I had to have Half Magic (83 Landfall 35) surveyed for insurance purposes with the mast down and a rig inspection. Rod rigging, single spreader. My surveyor is a former C Landfall 38 owner. He looked at the attachment points at the mast to make sure they weren’t seized or cracked,

The heads were a source of concern on the older Navtec design. Shortly after I bought my 34 (about 20 year old), I had the heads inspected by a local shop. They used some sort of dye as I recall to facilitate the inspection. Everything looked okay to them. I also conferred with a mechanical

Charlie, Due to a boat falling into my standing rigging, I underwent a complete rigging inspection (mast down). I don’t know if the rigging was ever replaced or serviced before my ownership, but only a few things were needed (fittings mostly). If I were you, I would do a thorough inspection

Hello listers-- My boat is entering her 26th year (delivered for use in 1995) and except for a replaced forestay, has its original rod-rigging. Local riggers, among others, believe that rod rigging should be replaced (or re-headed?) at about 25 years of use. Since C finally bit the dust about 20
