This Elan GT5 page brings the main rigging-planning information together so an owner can move from an early estimate to a checked specification. The furler section is useful for checking whether the existing forestay system should be retained, replaced or considered alongside a wider furling upgrade. The existing yacht should therefore take priority over any generic model assumption, especially where a mast, furler or set of rigging screws has been replaced before. The lowest-risk approach is to verify the complete existing set: stay count, material, diameter, finished length, terminals, pins, rigging screws and all forestay/furling interfaces.
