Loos Guage
I've used loos guages for many years now on a variety of boats. Right now I use a PT-2metric guage which gives me accurate consistent readings. I have more faith in these than the old 90 and 91 tension guages by Loos, but these used to work well also. I race Melges 24's and a 30' cruiser racer and quarter tonners, with 5mm and 6mm 1 x 19 ss rigging. We adjust the rigging every time we go sailing and these are the best tool I know of to check tension.
Hope this helps
