Bavaria C38 has a useful model reference for rigging work, including a fractional sloop rig, 11.38 m LOA and introduced in 2021. That information helps with early budgeting and equipment selection, but it should not be used as a substitute for checking the rig actually fitted to the yacht. For replacement standing rigging, we would confirm the full stay layout, wire or rod material, diameters, finished lengths, mast terminals, chainplate pins and rigging-screw threads. Any headsail furler, forestay terminal arrangement and significant previous rig modifications should be identified before manufacture.
