[Public-list] Standing rigging

[Gordon Laco]

Hi there - 

I think Henderson's book is good.  I taught rigging courses for years at
Georgian College's Marine Tech school for years and used that book as the
text for the intro course.  Each section starts out with basic
principals...then goes on to the heavy engineering etc.

I think that book is quite good as a starting point.

Cheers - Gordon
