Hello All,

Does anyone have a list of the halyard and running rigging line lengths for a J35?

The Hall Spars web site (www.hallspars.com) has several choices for halyards and running rigging on their site, but they do not mention the lengths:

The Figure 8 diagram on the Destination One Design web site (www.destinationonedesign.com) has some of the halyard lengths, but not for the spinnaker sheets, guys and genoa sheets.

Thanks,
Mir

When replacing halyards I buy 120 feet. This allows enough for splicing the shackle to the end. This also leaves enough so that every couple of years I can end for end the halyards. I usualy get 4-6 years from a halyard before total replacment.

I replaced my wire-rope jib halyard with Spectra and purchased 125'. This was more than enough and I could probably have used 115'.
