I'm just trying to find a reasonable range of tension so I can start experimenting with various tensions...I don't want to approach the realm of compromising the mast structure. The mast was constructed by Allied Composites 9 years ago and it doesn't appear they're making a-cat masts anymore. Although I have both styles of gauge, If you have it, I would like the measurement in pounds tension (I know, beggers / choosers).
I would imagine just tight enough so you do not have any slack in the windward sidestay when out on trap.
With the diamond wires?
