RIG. Trim.
New VISION 42
55
Due to the design of the rig featuring swept back spreaders & 9/10
th
rigging, it is absolute important
and necessary to adjust and tune the rig as it has to be.
With every boat & rig a manual is supplied showing the correct and right way of the perfect tuning of
the entire rig. Please always refer to the Seldén Manual to trim and rig the mast correct.
Here we just want to point out, that the stays DO NEED to get tensioned right to achieve the best
possible and most safe (!) rigging on our yachts.
You might be scared by the suggested load to apply, but don
´
t worry! Trim the rig as described and
you will feel the difference on sea!
And don
´
t even think about the yacht being not stiff enough to take it!
The All New Vision Line is designed to take such loads easily – plus a seriously sound safety margin
IMPORTANT: The correct tensioning is just a fraction of important facts and safety issues
to take care for!
For full rigging instructions please refer to the supplied manufacturers manual.
On the following page we purely focus on loadings of stays & rig – as it is vital to understand this
point to achieve the best sailing performance of the new Cruiser Range Yachts by Bavaria!
Prior to talk about the characteristic of tensioning our rigs, please note the sketch right showing the
right way how to turn the rigging screw bodies!
A common mistake which can result in dramatic errors is shown as “incorrect”!
By disregarding this, a failure or damage to the rigging screw will be the result! The friction on the
thread of the screws is huge. So the use of the supplied grease/oil and correct tools is important!
