[C320-list] Backstay Adjuster blocks

[jonvez at comcast.net]

Bill,

The 308's will fit fine. I use them and I helped install the very same setup on a 350. Although my hull is 582, I don't believe they have changed the diameter of the backstays. I'm sure the 350's shrouds are at least the same size as the 320's (I believe it uses the same spar as the 320)

Regards,

Jon Vez
