[quote=DamonLinkous][quote=hdgib]As I said in a earlier post the photo's are of an identical boat, not mine. I do have the eye bolts on each bow but no forestay bridal wires . And on the stern my eye bolts are about a foot from the transom on each hull but again I have no main block bridal. [/quote]
Oh, ok missed that I guess.

My question, do I need a ready made "Y" bridal or can I create something from cable. I don't know how much stress will be on these.[/quote]
I don't see how you'd find the correct factory wires so you'll need to fabricate something with swaged eye ends.
I don't think you mentioned yet where you are located, it would really help you to get an experienced sailor to look this over, there are a lot of variables to deal with to get a good geometry for the rig. To answer your question about stress, it's actually quite a lot comparitively, this boat isn't very large and the sails (based on mast height) are small so I'd say that building the wires to the standards for a 18-20 foot beachcat would be more than enough, but they have to be built correctly or the eyes could fail.[/quote]
