This Westerly Longbow 31 page brings the main rigging-planning information together so an owner can move from an early estimate to a checked specification. Mast-and-boom guidance is shown as an additional reference only, keeping a possible spar replacement separate from the normal standing-rigging scope. Model data is most valuable when it is compared with the boat in front of you, because small hardware changes can affect the finished length and termination required for a replacement stay. 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.
