Does anyone have the specifications for the running rigging? As the paperwork that was provided with our boat only states diameters and end splices but not the lengths.

Halyards: Mainsail, 115? length, 7/16? diameter (OEM was pre-streched 3/8" diameter dacron); Headsail, 115? length, 7/16? diameter (OEM was 7 x 19 SS 3/16" wire and 7/16" diameter dacron); Spinnaker, 120? length, 7/16? diameter. The main sheet length is a function of the number and location of the blocks on the boom and traveler, which varies amoung different T37s. The mainsheet diameter is a function of the winch (my Lewmar 16 self tailing one speed requires a 3/8" diameter, which is smaller than the OEM 7/16" diameter). The genoa sheets are a function of the size of the headsail, which varies amoung different T37s, since the length has to be sufficient for example to run from the starboard winch around the forward shrouds to the clew when the genoa is on the starboard tack with the sail on the port side fully extended. The genoa sheet diameter is a function of the winch (my Anderson 46 self tailing two speed require a 1/2 diameter, which is smaller than the OEM 9/16" diameter). The reef lines are 3/8" diameter and length is a function of the number of reefs. The centerboard pennant is 30' pre-streached dacron 3/8" diameter. Centerboard tag line is 3/8" dacron. Flag halyard is 1/8" nylon. The main boom topping lift was 7 x 19 vinyl coated wire 1/8" diameter. There was also a main boom topping pennant that was 5/16" dacron. Jay.

Anyone know the length of the mainsheet with three blocks under the boom like in the attached picture? Time to replace and haven't had the time to take it off and measure plus get all the sailing in I want while at the boat on the weekends Smile

Or a close estimate shooting longer rather than shorter?
