Title: Size of standing rigging wire
Post by: btolley on Jun 14, 2024, 03:25 PM
Hello, I need to replace the standing rigging on my P15 and was wondering what the size of wire to order. I assume it is 1x19, but if someone could confirm that for me, I would be very appreciative.  Thank you

Brian

1/8" 1x19 marine rigging wire (not hardware store stuff).

You have the tools to duplicate the end fittings?

Is there some place to get ready made standing rigging for a P19?

Any marine rigging shop can duplicate what you have.  Best practice is to take/mail the current rigging to the shop so everything is copied exactly (this assumes the current rigging is correctly sized).

I don't know where you are located, but if in the Bay area, West Marine in Alameda will do it. You can actually bring your boat in and leave it.
