The Dufour 2800 is covered in our rigging database so owners can begin a replacement project with a consistent set of cost and equipment references. The standing-rigging section can be used for initial budgeting, while the running-rigging and equipment tables help identify additional work that may sensibly be completed at the same time. 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. To turn the model guide into a manufacturing specification, measure the existing stays and confirm terminal forms, pin sizes, turnbuckle threads and the exact way the forestay connects to the furler.
