through should be padded with a piece of foam and taped over to prevent chafing sails.
Any stranded wire rigging should be checked for broken, protruding strands. Check also
for any signs of rust in wire rigging. A good practice is to paint a small white ring around
the wire where it enters the terminal. The paint will show if any slippage occurs and will
prevent salt from collecting in the minute spaces between the strands, which will induce
corrosion. Examine carefully where the wire enters the terminal end fitting for signs of
rust or wear since this is a particularly vulnerable point when the yacht is sailed in salt
water. If signs of rust or wear are found, the rigging should be replaced. Rod rigging
should be examined for nicks or kinks and any signs of fatigue where the rod enters the
terminal end fitting. If any potential problem is found, consult your Tartan Dealer.
12.7 Running Rigging
Running rigging comprises the gear that is normally used in handling and trimming sails
such as sheets, guys, halyards and vangs. Main and genoa halyards are subject to heavy
loading and constant flexing as they pass over the sheave at the head of the mast and
turning blocks at the foot of the mast.
Rope halyards are typically not subject to wear as severe as wire halyards, but should
be examined several times each season. The end fitting should be checked each time the
yacht is sailed to ensure it closes and locks smoothly and securely. The splice at the end
fitting should also be checked with each sail. Rope sheets tend to fray over a period of
time and should be replaced when any strand of the outer layer of braid begins to fray.
12.8 Lifelines, Pulpits and Stanchions
Lifelines, like standing rigging, should receive regular, periodic inspections. The terminal
ends at the connector must be well screwed into the barrel in order that all the threads of
the barrel are fully engaged. The lock rings must be installed. Check the swaged ends for
signs of rust. Check pulpits and stanchions for dents or cracks. Ensure that they are properly
secured into their bases.
12.9 Winches and Blocks
Most problems which develop in winches are due to insufficient or improper maintenance.
When sailing in salt water, winches should be stripped down, cleaned and lubricated no
less than once a month. In fresh water areas this maintenance procedure should be
performed at least twice each season. The bolts securing the winches should be checked
at least once each season. Access to the bolts which secure the cockpit winches may be
gained by removing the winch drums. Bolts securing the winches on the coachroof
may be checked by removing the winch drums as well. If it is necessary to remove a
winch base and remove the bolts, the bolts should be resealed with marine sealant.
Blocks normally require little maintenance, but they should be examined regularly
