Anyone have a good source for A cat rigging? I usually make my own rigging, but I have a broken diamond wire and I can't crimp the roller-swaged fittings.

Hi Dan, If you don't have anyone local to you that roll swages. Call or Email APS in Annapolis, they will be able to make up the wire and send it to you. They will ask you for the wire type length and end fittings required. Best to replace both at the same time

It is a lucky boy that can break a diamond wire and not a mast!

I agree, but the boat was rear-ended on the trailer and the mast went through the windshield of the car! I bought the boat after the accident, so I'm thinking either they cut the wire or it broke on something in the car. The mast seems to be ok!?


I found someone local to do the rigging--I didn't know Tony Arends had the tools! He's a one-stop shop!!

The men were amazed, and said, "What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?" Matthew 8:27
