Standard Rigging Practices

[Chorine]

I am not a rigger, however I have spent many dull hour in building standards committee meetings. Auspicious, has a good point. To create a meaningful standard you need the support of an organization like ABYC. These organizations typically provide the forum for discussion and publish the resulting standard. They also control the process to prevent problems with restraint of trade and other bussiness issues. If there is a percieved need a standards organization will provide a focal point for other profesionals and manufactureers who may want to participate.

Also, Brion thanks for Spartalk. As a weekend sailor I find it very interesting and helpful.
