[Alberg30] Broken forestay

[Mike Lehman]

And they are stronger and more serviceable than swaged fittings, so I am 
told.

I agree with the comments re Stalocks. When I redid my rigging, I had the 
pro do a regular swage at the top and I did the final adjustments using 
Stalocks at the bottoms. Their easy to do and get even easier after you do a 
few of them.

   John,

    I installed the ProFurl unit this spring and in the process had to make 
a new forestay. I would recommend using Sta Lok fittings and purchase a 
piece of wire (I used one size up from 1/4" I am in my office and don't have 
the data available) and assembly the unit yourself. It is quite simple to 
do, my son and I built the ProFurl and rigging within an hour. Just follow 
the directions in the Sta Lok package.

     I almost forgot.  Along with the broken forestay, it would appear there 
is damage to the roller furler.  While I have to replace the forestay, the 
furler could wait.  I have a hanked on drifter and working jib, but no 
genoa.  Does anyone have an old(cheap) genoa that might get me through the 
summer.  I don't race so it doesn't have to be in great shape.

       Help, I've broken my forestay.  Can I order a new one from someplace 
like West Marine by using a standard length.  We have noone in our area of 
MI that does rigging work.  I have found someone to replace it if I can get 
one.
