The Westerly Berwick 31 guide helps owners decide what may need replacing, what can be priced indicatively and what still needs measuring. The running-rigging table gives a separate starting point for halyards and sheets, so rope replacement can be planned without confusing it with the standing-rigging specification. 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. If the old rigging is available, copying the original stay set after checking its condition and dimensions is usually more dependable than manufacturing solely from a model-based schedule.
