For a Moody 27, this page provides a practical starting point for planning replacement standing rigging and related equipment work. The equipment tables are deliberately separate from the standing-rigging cost, allowing a basic replacement set to be planned first and extra sail-handling or deck-hardware items added only where useful. A previous owner may have changed the furler, turnbuckles or mast hardware without altering the overall rig plan, so those details should be recorded before a new set is ordered. The final check should identify each stay individually and capture wire size, finished length, terminal geometry, pin diameters, rigging screws and any furler components that determine the forestay length.
