Hunter Horizon 26 is a compact British sailing yacht, with our model data recording 8.03 m LOA and introduced in 1984. A complete standing-rigging replacement can be planned efficiently at this size, but the actual stay set still needs to be matched to the individual boat. We would confirm the number of shrouds and stays, wire diameters, finished lengths, mast terminals, chainplate pin sizes and rigging-screw threads before manufacture. Where a headsail furler is fitted, the forestay length and terminal arrangement should be checked with the furler components so the replacement remains compatible with the existing installation.
