brion,
thanks for the tip on the selden guide on rigging and tuning. it confirms other literature that i have been using as a basis. i think i am headed in the right direction. i am puzzled about the b&r rig though. the hunter manual indicates that the 33, 35 and 37 hunters have conventional fractional rigs and the 28, 40 and 45 hunters have b&r rigs (1988-1994 vintage). the b&r rig, i thought, has additional diagnals between the base of the mast and the spreaders creating a diamond pattern with the stays. i am not sure but i thought the hunter 37 in the video did not have these extra stays.
thanks again,
charrette
