it gets older, it may need to be replaced. The frequency
for which this becomes necessary depends on your main-
tenance and the climate and conditions in which the boat
is sailed. For example: If you sail in the Caribbean, it
should be replaced every 3-4 years compared to every 10
years for the Great Lakes. You should consult a profes-
sional rigger for advice.
14.2.8.2.2 Running Rigging
Running rigging should be periodically inspected for line
degradation and replaced as needed.
14.2.8.2.3 Mast and Boom
With regard to the mast and boom, a few maintenance
procedures should be implemented. The boom traveler
car should be regularly rinsed with mild detergent and
fresh water. The top and bottom of the roller furler mech-
anism in the furling mast should be regularly washed,
rinsed and lubricated. Additionally the roller furling line
should be annually inspected and replaced as needed.
NOTE: Please refer to the rig manufacturer’s OEM manual for
specific details and maintenance specifications.
14.2.8.2.4 Roller Furling Jib
The roller furling jib assembly should also be annually
inspected. The lower bearing and halyard swivel should
be annually lubricated in specific locations as outlined in
the manufacturer’s OEM manual. The entire assembly
can be washed with a mild detergent and rinsed with
fresh water.
NOTE: Please refer to the rig manufacturer’s OEM manual for
specific details and maintenance specifications.
14.2.9 Keel
The keel bolt nuts (Fig. 14.2) should be checked periodi-
cally to re-adjust for any thread slippage. At a minimum,
the nuts should be checked before the initial launch of
each new sailing season. Access to the keel nuts is
through the main bilge floor panel in the main salon.
Adjustments musts be made with deep sockets, sizeable
torque wrench and long extension bar. Please refer to
Figure 14.1 keel nut torque specs.
