Need Standing Rigging Specs Typhoon

Post by hinmo »

Looks like I might be buying all new spars for my Typhoon....mas, boom and rigging all destroyed in massive boatyard fire.

1980 Weekender, I have not found the OEM/Stock standing rigging.

Apparently, I am not a very good "Searcher" and cannot find the data...can someone provide link? or measurements?

Thanks

CDSOA has a copy of the 1981 manual to download. Specs for standing and running rigging are near the end.

Good luck with your project!

You live close to both Dwyer Mast (Bristol) and Rigging Only (Fairhaven) - between the two you should be able to get what you need. I have the original standing rigging from my Ty DS that you are welcome to - the forestay is wrong but the other 5 should get you started.

Ask another Ty owner to measure the lengths of the mast and boom extrusions for you. The original spars were Spartan Spars (not related to Spartan Marine) which are sold exclusively by Rig-Rite
https://rigrite.com/Spars/Spartan_Spars/SPARTAN.php

You’ll find the specs for the Ty mast section here:
https://rigrite.com/Spars/Spartan_Spars/cd2_mast.php

And the boom section here:
https://rigrite.com/Spars/Spartan_Spars/cd2_mast.php

Ty spreader sections:
https://rigrite.com/Spars/Spartan_Spars ... sprdrs.php

Rig-Rite has all the mast and boom hardware as well.

If you don’t want to purchase from Rig-Rite, you can get the same mast and boom sections from Dwyer Aluminum Mast Co., just use the Rig-Rite measurements.
