I am not sure, but I bought a new set of wires for my boat, and the Shroud wires were a little shorter than the old ones...could be the old wires were stretched. The Aussie Halyard/Forestay was quite a bit longer. I made the mistake of cutting it off to my old forestay length, then had to use two chain plates to get my mast rake right.

I have 6 sets of old wires, and none of them are the same length. The new wires I bought were pretty close to the same length. I do not know if this was a QC problem or just wire stretch.

My guess is go for the new wires and an Aussie Halyard.
