While the mast is down for some coring work, we had the rigger do an overall inspection. We received overall good marks on the standing rigging, and suggestions to replace most of the running rigging(which we knew, and will tackle down the road a little).
At the moment, we have a budget that has taken a beating from the fiberglass work. There really isn't any wiggle room at this point to handle anything but the most critical of safety hazards. With that in mind, here is what was marked as needed to be replaced. What's the general safety severity of these? Our sailing is on the Chesapeake in mild/moderate conditions.
-Shroud attachment points
-Spreader boots
- Mast should be painted
The wiring is also almost certainly going to need to be replaced, as it was apparently run too short. POs are the best.
