installing new rod rigging

[infinitysail]

Thanks for the quick responses, Joe.

Rod is all continuous with spreader bends. I measured from the middle of the bend to the bearing surface of the stemball adapter cup inside the k200 tangs. I also measured overall length. I finally measured the bend angle with a t square and some rusty high school math. I will probably remeasure one more time on the other side of the rig to double check everything.

One more question: Navtec has aluminum and stainless spreader bends. Are the stainless ones significantly better?

Thanks,
Frank
