Rigging

 Having fun with Sta-Lok fittings.

Most of our new rigging on the Saber will be Dyneema.  The one exception will be the forestay.  This is because we will be reinstalling our furling system.

I went with Sta-Lok for the terminals.  Ordered them from Defender.

Got this nice photo of one in the vise......


Here are the strands after a test fit.  Prior to final assembly, Boat Life caulk is put in the fitting's cavity and LocTite is put on the treads.
