[C320-list] Tension settings for shrouds

[Ken Geiger]

I have a PT-2 gauge used on a previous boat and when I look at the information on the Loos directions and gauge it seems to me that the Loos PT-2 numbers given here below for C-320 for the D1 and D2 stays (1/4" diameter wire) are lower than the Loos recommended settings  for 1/4" wire.  

Regards

Ken

Allan, thanks for the reply. I found the below settings. But he changed the
forestay and added a backstay adjuster. Are the setting below correct?

Cap stays-PT-3 gauge18
D1 forward stays-PT-2 gauge 31
D1 aft stays-PT-2 gauge 16
D2 stays-PT-2 gauge 18.5

Does anyone have the tension setting for the shrouds?
