Product Description

From YouTube's popular Rigging Doctor channel, The Rigging Handbook is an introductory to mid-level book intended for boat owners, sailors, and cruisers who want to better understand how the mast and sails work and make an informed decision on what grade of equipment to use to outfit their boat. This guide includes an overview of common rig designs, a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of all rigging materials (including hemp, steel, and Dyneema), why rigging parts fail, how to perform a rig survey, and the basics of replacing standing and running rigging.
