New rigg and genua

I just got the old running rigg renewed over the winter with new wire and bronze turnbuckles. The new rigg where made by Thomas Stolz really god service can only recommend the work.

The old rigg was gone. 30 years is just what the rigg can take on a Bianca Lido.

After cleaning the old turnbuckles they had a lot of movement. 1 mm each side.
New wire and turnbukles SB side.

New backstay shorter 100 mm then the old and its still urn almost all the way down.

 The new genua is nice and it reacts god with the boat. I can get the close to 30 dgr. in headwinds :)

Genua from Hoj Jensen sails.
