[quote=dmgbear55]I think while you are having fun replacing rigging you do need to include the diamond wires. Failure of a diamond wire means a likely mast replacement. When a shroud fails the mast just falls on your head and that cushions the masts fall.
That said my 40+ year old rigging held up through lots of salt and freshwater use, but in a much cooler climate and I think that is a critical difference as compared to the Florida and Texas sailors. The new stuff should last at least through a couple of new owners.[/quote]
