Good day,

Would anyone be able to share the standard 8m standing rigging wire lengths for:

Backstays 
Inner stays
Outer stays
Baby stay
Forestay

Clevis pin diameters.

Thank you.

    I'm afraid that we just put Scubacat's mast back up, otherwise we could have measured her rigging for you..
    Rick on his site says that the rigging is 1/4" 1x19 SS on the Catalac 8M and 9M, and that looks about right. 

    Does anyone have a better idea of where to look for this data? 
     I must admit that we just paid the rigger to set up new rigging when we originally bought her.

    Having a 9m I can't really help but if you obtain lengths, I would not use them to obtain made up rigging without finishing on site.  Whilst the Catalacs all look the same they are all slightly different, including mine.

    No worries we had a baby stay made with the old one and it worked out. If I come across the specs I'll post

    I sail on several Catalac models a year. I'll start bringing a gauge with me to measure rigging wire size. I would recommend this site add a mast  - boom - rigging section with complete specifications. As our boats get tired, it may become very important. I had the mast / boom cad cam file for the 8/9M but can't find it!!
