Subject: S22 shroud tensioning questions
Info: (2670 views) Posted: Saturday 11-22-14 02:07:02 PM
Hello Sailors - I'm looking for some advice regarding tension of the shrouds on my S22, specifically what it should be set to. I see some posts suggesting 380/480lbs for lower upper. Is that a good pair of numbers?

My boat is a 2002, seemingly in nice condition. In winds over ~8 kts she heels and the lee shrouds start to sag. It worries me a bit because the bay as everyone knows is choppy and she gets to pounding the waves quite nicely. She has one of those large ~110 jibs.

So the question is what should I tension the shrouds to? Thank you, -Dave Gee, Redwood City.
