[C38] New Catalinas 38 owner: Boom Rigging

[Jay Sorensen]

Hi Alex,

 

Welcome to the group.  As a recent C-38 convert I had a lot of similar
questions.  Are you referring to the boom (mainsail) attachment, i.e.
gooseneck,to the mast; the boom lift used to prevent the boom from
hitting the deck when no rigid vang (or hoisted mainsail) is present; or
the topping lift (spinnaker pole halyard almost) attachment to the mast?

 

They are all quite different.  Let me know what you need and I'll
download the pics.

Hi,

 

I am proud new owner of a 1982 Catalina 38, hull #183.  Still learning
and first time rigging the boat. I was wondering if anyone know if there
are any Owners Manuals out there for this boat?  I am looking for any
close-up diagrams or photos for rigging the boom (topping lift?) to the
mast.  Any photos or diagrams on how the halyards and lines are routed
through?

 

Any response is much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Alex
