For the Moody 38, the information below is intended as a model-level planning tool rather than a substitute for checking the rig actually fitted to the yacht. Mast-and-boom guidance is shown as an additional reference only, keeping a possible spar replacement separate from the normal standing-rigging scope. Changes made during earlier refits are often found at the ends of the stays rather than in the wire itself, which is why terminal style, pin size and turnbuckle thread need checking. Where measurements are being supplied remotely, clear photographs of every upper and lower termination should accompany the finished lengths, wire sizes, pin diameters and rigging-screw details.
